Hi,
One of the features of Linux Lite is that it has the graphical tool so you dont have to mess around the command line.
The Linux Team deals with what to update or not and must say they do a splendid job on this.
I played around with the different terminal command and broke my installations more then once so be careful... or just use the graphical user interface.
You can choose to change/update the Linux Kernel with another Lite tool, but I would only recommend you this option if something doesnt work (i.e. network card, etc.)
Personnaly, I would only use apt-get upgrade on other Linux distros.
What is in synaptics is usually the standard/stable version of software.
Not all software are available in there and you could sometime have to add a PPA repository. User/sites will usually give the terminal instruction for this. Its a few lines. (add repository, do an apt-get update, then apt-get install)
Cheers!
