Search for Updates moves very fast back and fourth

Asked by Shanekpiper

Ubuntu 12.10 - I think the search for updates progress bar that bounces back and fourth at the begining moves far to fast. It could cause issues for people with photo sensitive epilepsy. Is there a way that it could be slowed down or changed.

You can easily use a terminal to upgrade your system open a terminal by pressing

ctrl + alt + t

then type:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

and type your password when requested, you do not will have any chars back to screen when you type the password, so type it and then press enter.

Answer Y to upgrade...
