Hi,
You should use mintUpdate instead of the update-manager:

Ubuntu and Mint are very close and Ubuntu tutorials/guide should work under Mint.

Cassandra still has the update manager and auto notification. It was removed from Celena for reasons explained in the blog (you can still manually update).
Celena is sort of a slightly stripped down (or should that be streamlined) version that is a bit more noob friendly.
Cassandra is the full featured Mint.
Both versions are based on Ubuntu Feisty so they are really the same at the core. The differences are the artwork, and certain packages that were either added or removed (mostly removed, like Beagle and auto-updates). If you are new to Linux and want a distro that will perform well with a minimum of headaches, then Celena is the best choice. If you have experience in Linux (Ubuntu in particular) and want to run the most up to date packages, even if it means some occasional trouble shooting, then Cassandra might be the better choice.
I'm running one of each...
