I don't know if this pertains to Ubuntu.  Yesterday, I upgraded from Debian
Sarge to Etch and the directions specified that if running X it is necessary
to perform the upgrade in parts.  I know that Ubuntu already uses X.org so I
don;t know if the upgrades in parts is necessary by here is a link to Debian
instructions

Hope this helps
Jay
