Gena,

There are three steps to follow, maybe the first is already done. If you 
are not a gnupg user, this is the first step, as root:

apt-get install gnupg


Then you must use your cut and paste speakup feature to examine that 
error, and capture the fingerprint of the encryption key that is shown 
to you. Plug it into the second step in place of the one that is shown. 
Again as root, type this:

gpg --keyserver keyring.debian.org --recv 60B6B958


Finally, there is a third step. Again, as root, type this:

gpg --armor --export  | apt-key add -


That should do it. What is happening is that the archives have begun to 
offer public key signing as an authentication method for the indices of 
the repositories. There is just one key per repository that uses this 
method. You can safely ignore the whole thing and just live with those 
errors if you wish, they are only harmless warnings, but following the 
above steps will retrieve the public key required by your system to 
verify the signature that now accompanies some of those repository 
indices when you do an apt-get update.

This whole subject is covered in painful detail on discussion lists and 
in several wiki's, but the above steps should do it for you.

HTH
Chuck
