I am new in using Linux. The problem I'm having is with the update manager. I have it pinned to the launcher but when i left-click it does not respond. When i right-click it it responds by showing me the menu but i don't want to install all the available updates. My laptop is a MSI CR630. I also have a problem with my wlan. It's saying that it is manually turned of but I tried everything i could think of but let's face it, I am noob. But I'm using linux for 2 months now and I don't want to go back to a cracked windows.

If you would like to help me with an answer please be as detailed as you can.

Thank you!

With the help of rfkill list i have managed to figure out that the hard unblocker was the combo of Fn + F8. As for the other problem, still not solved. I mean that when i have updates ready i can't load the interface with them listed. I click it but it doesn't load. But I am able to right click it and then click the option install all updates. Ideas anyone?

First of all, why do you not want to install the available updates? Updates are a good thing, and unless you know that updates will break compability you should apply them. You can apply all updates from a terminal instead of the update manager by running

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

Secondly, please have a look at I have a hardware detection problem, what logs do I need to look into?, we need to know if your wireless card is detected at all. Has it worked before, or has it never worked?

If you help us get a more complete picture of your problem we can help you a lot quicker.
