the Hoary packages are still at 5.03. i am using successfully the 
DebianGIS repositories (this is the home page)

http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl

on my hoary it works quite well, though it's the 6.0.0beta2 version. I 
couldn't manage to get qgis working due to an outdated libgdal version 
in the Ubuntu repository(1.25 - qgis 0.6.2 requires 1.26 if I am right).

version 6.0.0 comes with ubuntu 5.10 breezy badger (release scheduled 
for october) that is already available in the repositories but 
definitely too much unstable imho.

anyway a good starting point would be this page

www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/UbuntuGIS

regards, Stefano
