Couple of things I can think of:
Use aptitude to upgrade rather than apt-get.
Once you have changed your sources.list to reflect Squeeze do the following:
Code:
aptitude update && aptitude keep-all
aptitude install apt dpkg aptitude
Then do the upgrade with:
Code:
aptitude safe-upgrade
aptitude full-upgrade
Personally,I prefer to do this from a console with no X running.

Also I'd like to know what version of Xorg does squeeze use, has it been updated? Thanx in advance!

Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
to make sure that you have the latest version.
The main problem you *may* encounter is the new udev with the Lenny kernel.Craigevil has helpfully posted about this here:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...queeze-822747/
I have upgraded machines from Lenny to Squeeze/Testing myself,it is do-able without breaking the original install.
Good luck!.
