opensuse 12.3
linux 3.7.10-1.16-desktop x86_64
Packagekit/Apper (are they the same?) truly hogs the network bandwidth for everyone here when the application wakes up to check for updates. We have a lowly DSL connection (1.5Mb down/0.8Mb up) to the Internet. When Packagekit/Apper is running, the apparent bandwidth drops to near zero for everyone else. It does not seem to matter which computer (there are 6) suddenly springs to life, the network becomes jammed.
Is there a way to schedule when Packagekit/Apper wakes up? I would prefer to have it run some time between 1am and 4am.
