um... this is the error I'm getting:

"jason at rensiks-place:~$ update-manager -d

Introspect error: The name org.freedesktop.UpdateManager was not provided by
any .service files

no listening object (The name org.freedesktop.UpdateManager was not provided
by any .service files) "

I have the individual cmd-lines spaced apart for better clarity.
