I have installed (fresh) Lubuntu 13.10, and despite setting software-properties-common (repositories) to check for updates daily and display security updates immediately (weekly for other updates), I have never once had Update Manager (excuse me - "Software Updater", as it now seems to be called...) pop up on my screen - I have had to manually select it from the main menu; just now I was using Synaptic, and noticed some pkgs. had "update available" symbols by them. I had had Lubuntu 12.04, and almost every day had UM pop up saying something was available; now - never.
