Simple. Click on update-manager...if there are no updates to be installed...click on "check". If there are updates, click on "Install". When the installation begins I presume update-manager runs a terminal, because that is where I see the message "Term not set" How does the terminal > run "in" update-manager? Wouldn't it be the other way around? Update-manager is a GTK program...so it'll run from the desktop. What dialogue > isn't working? What do you mean by readline? Readline I gather is the default the system uses when Dialog isn't available.
