The recommended way for upgrading to dapper is described here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades

It recommends gksudo "update-manager -d"

I recently learned that the method of changing sources.list and using
aptitude for dist-upgrade is no longer recommended. More info on this
directly from mdz in the sub-thread starting here:

HTH,
