Thankyou Lynne for the extra info.

My apologies for asking about the root password, It should have clicked
when you said you used Synaptic. I asked because I want you to run an
"apt-get update" in the terminal. This will print out all the
sources/repos apt is using to get your updates and other applications.
Since you are having trouble getting to the logs this is a quick way of
getting some more info. Please do the following

Open a terminal.

At the prompt type: "sudo apt-get update" (without the comments)

You should get a long list printed out in the terminal. Copy the list
and past it up here. There may be some errors in the
/etc/apt/sources.list file causeing the errors your getting.

Regards Jason.
