Couple of things....

1.  You didn't mention what package you were trying to update.  What is it?

2.  Sounds like you are getting a text mode login prompt and are able to login.  This would seem to indicate that the graphics login is failing to initialize.  What is the output of "grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
