From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If the grahical app store has asked for a password when updating, like on normal Fedora (what Nobara is based on), all programs installed with
sudo dnf install <program(s)>are also updated. A update to native packages can also be ran withsudo dnf upgrade. Flatpaks can be updated from the app store or withflatpak update. (no sudo, as that just raises the privileges for the next command, like dnf)Linux has become more user-friendly, but due to the many, many alternatives for pretty much everything, while some programs integrate well with each other, this is not the case for everything, sadly.
Sorry, I don't know about the scroll issue. The scroll wheel on a mouse or dragging 2 fingers on a touchpad should still work.
TL;DR:
If you are prompted for a password when updating, everything's fine. This should be the case for you, as Nobara is based on Fedora, which supports this. Otherwise, you have to run
sudo dnf upgradeor the equivalent for your distributions's package manager.
