normally it doestn't make sense to have stable (lenny), testing
(squeeze) and unstable (sid) in /etc/apt/sources.list
Usually you only use one of them.

I think you didn't set a device in the debconf prompt which asked for
one.
You need to run grub-install to update it. Else the graphical terminal
won't get anymore enabled by update-grub/grub-mkconfig.
And also check GRUB_GFXMODE in /etc/default/grub, which is the
resolution for GRUB if the graphical terminal is enabled.
