In the group buffer :
g will check for new articles in every subscribed group
alt-g will do so only for the current group or topic
To see the description of a key : alt-x describe-key
This has to be used in the context in which you want the explanation
since keys have different meanings in different contexts.
Normally gnus will check for new articles in all subscribed groups on
startup (at least it does for me, without extra configuration)
