Hmm, seems that the apt-get upgrade process is trying to open a
connection to the X server and is of course refused to do so.
Try to type in the xterm, before you do su, xhost + (this gives anyone
access to your X server, not very secure though), then su and do the
apt-get upgrade, then exit from

My HDD went for a toss so I had to get a new disk and reinstall the OS.

I have tried to follow the description in /usr/doc/apt/offline.text.gz,

First let me apologize for the seemingly basic question but I have exhausted
