All,

I am wondering if anyone can tell me if there's an easy way, when using
`apt-get upgrade`, to get around the pop-up configuration screens that occur
with some updates.  One example of this is with a kernel update.  It appears
that the kernel update wants to inform you that you should reboot soon, and
unfortunately the colorful blue and red screen cannot be circumvented with
the usual ways.  I tried this:

apt-get -y update
apt-get -y upgrade -or- apt-get -y --force-yes upgrade

Neither of these work.  It seems like I might be able to get around this
screen by manipulating either some apt-get configuration, or some dpkg
configurations, but I'm completely unaware of where this information may be
held.

Thanks for any help!
