There's a couple of other changes you might need to make, so I've put an
updated source.list for you at http://pastebin.com/f3944dadb. To replace
your current one with the updated one, just do the following in a terminal:

cd
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
wget http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=f3944dadb
sudo mv pastebin.php\?dl\=f3944dadb /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade

Again, if you have any errors put them on PasteBin.
