Security with Linux - Newbie

[hashimoto]

Well, you got to type "sudo apt-get upgrade" after "sudo apt-get update"
to actually download and install the updates. "sudo apt-get update" only
updates the packages list.

For a newbie it may be easier to use the Synaptic. Go to Computer >
System configurations > Synaptic package manager. It will ask your
password before starting. Click "Update lists" then "Mark all updates"
then "Apply". Synaptic will then downaload all necessary packages and
install them.
