well, here is the uncommented part from my /etc/apt/source-list
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted
universe multiverse
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main
restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted
universe multiverse
and
~$ sudo apt-get update
~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Calculating upgrade...Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Release: 6.06
Codename: dapper
