Figures... a thread is hanging. Could be anything (software or hardware). Do you have any devices plugged into the computer (USB, Firewire, SCSI etc...) ??

Try the following...
1)
sudo apt-get update
2)
sudo apt-get upgrade
If it fails, let me know what it says.
Stay away from the
apt-get dist-upgrade command as this *will* probably install stuff you don't have and may remove stuff you want to keep.
