You need to provide more information: Which Debian versions or archives are you upgrading from and to? What is your upgrade history? (i.e., daily from Unstable or Testing, Unstable every 6 months, Stable to Testing or Unstable, etc.) Have you installed any backports or non-Debian packages? Which desktop environment are you using? Exactly which apps are affected and which are not?

Even with the above information it may not be possible to determine what the problem is--be prepared to post config files, logs, output of commands, etc. I think you should post to the debian-user mailing list so you reach a wider audience... once the problem has been narrowed down to a specific subsystem/class (e.g., X, GTK apps) or determined to be architecture specific (e.g., x86_64 boxes) be prepared to post what you've discovered to the appropriate mailing list(s).
