The first time you run the update, you will most likely get one package manager update that is required before we can send you the rest of the updates. Don't worry, more updates will follow.
The Update System will often run through more than one wave of updates. This is normal. We often need to do updates in stages to resolve update dependencies. Continue to let it run through the updates.
You should receive notifications that you have an 'Important update available'.
More help using the GUI update system can be found in our online user help documentation.
If you don't want to wait for a notification, you can also manually check for updates.
Note: If you have already installed your updates or there, you should get a dialog telling you that all software is up to date.

Those of you who have installed Broadcom Wireless Drivers from Slaine.org may find they no longer work after the update so will need to rebuild them by opening a terminal and running
rpmbuild --rebuild --target=i586 wl-kmod-5.60.48.36-1.moblin.src.rpm
After rebuilding you may need to reinstall the package.
sudo rpm --replacepkgs -i wl-kmod-5.60.48.36-1.meego.i586.rpm
After rebuilding, you should have working wifi. More details about the Broadcom drivers can be found at Slaine.org, and more details about this update issue can be found in this forum post.
