make sure you cdrom repo in /etc/apt/sources.list is commented out (with
a # infront of it) make sure you have your -desktop package installed
(if using gnome it would be ubuntu-desktop kde would be kubuntu-desktop
and so on) comment all non-offical repos out put a # infront of them
including backports than run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get
dist-upgrade   sit back and wait. the last few days alot of people that
come into #ubuntu on irc have had issues with the update-manager (not
sure why though)
