And at the risk of seeming even more repetitious:
Could you run apt-get update followed by apt-get dist-upgrade and post
what you get?  Also it is worth posting the present state of
your /etc/network/interfaces file.  That just _might_ give us some
clues!

yes i have tried them all, everyone.

I'm sorry Mark, but without the information that I have asked for,
several times now, I really can't help you.  And I fear that no-one else
will be able to either.

If you change your mind and are prepared to give the information, then
I'll see whether there is anything else I can do.

On the face of it, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong.  You started with
6.0.0 and now have 6.0.1, so you have clearly done some upgrading.  update
and dist-upgrade both agree that there are no updates available.  Since the
system upgraded to 6.0.1 without your realising it, perhaps it has kept up
with any updates that there are.  A slimmed down Squeeze is not going to have
many updates.

But I meant to ask you for your sources.list and mistakenly asked you
for /etc/apt/interfaces, which you had told me was now working.  Sorry. :-(
Could you post your sources.list?  There are some strange lines in the
updates and I have not come across this format, and I would like to see where
they come from.  Perhaps someone else has seen this and I am showing my
ignorance?  E.g.<Translation-en Ign http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/>,
<Translation-en_ZA Hit http://mirrors.kernel.org squeeze Release>.  In my
experience the language info comes at the end of the line, e.g. <Ign
http://security.debian.org lenny/updates/main Translation-en_GB>, <Ign
http://dl.google.com stable/main Translation-en_GB>.  This machine is running
Lenny, but I have just checked to make sure that Squeeze (on my
granddaughter's box) does indeed do the same and that it is not my memory
playing me false.  It does.
