Change in notifications of available updates

Ubuntu 9.04 introduces a change to the handling of package updates,
launching update-manager directly instead of displaying a notification
icon in the GNOME panel. Users will still be notified of security
updates on a daily basis, but for updates that are not security-related,
users will only be prompted once a week.

Users who wish to continue receiving update notifications in the
previous manner can restore the earlier behavior using the following
command:

gconftool -s --type bool /apps/update-notifier/auto_launch false
</quote>

Recommend you do the recommended gconftool command listed above.
