Comment 2 for bug 129604

After rebooting, X refused to start (ie kdm also refused to start). I then tried to do an apt-get dist-upgrade -u, which then gave me an error about libstdc++6_4.2.1-1ubuntu1 not being at the right level and requiring an apt-get -f install to correct. When I tried this it then gave me an error about a corrupt deb tarball. I then deleted the downloaded deb from the cache and it then properly re-downloaded it and installed it and finished installing those packages that were waiting for libstdc++6 to be installed at which time I could then get X/kdm to restart. I'll try the adept updater again next and see if that fixed the problems.
