sounds like you need something clicky. use gedit instead of nano.
and the lines should look as follows:
Code:
## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'universe'
## repository.
## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu
## team, and may not be under a free licence. Please satisfy yourself as to
## your rights to use the software. Also, please note that software in
## universe WILL NOT receive any review or updates from the Ubuntu security
## team.
# deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe
# deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe
## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'backports'
## repository.
## N.B. software from this repository may not have been tested as
## extensively as that contained in the main release, although it includes
## newer versions of some applications which may provide useful features.
## Also, please note that software in backports WILL NOT receive any review
## or updates from the Ubuntu security team.

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security main restricted
# deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe
# deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe
remove the # from the start of the lines to uncomment them:

actually, on reflection, those lines aren't quite complete. see some lines end only with 'universe' (e.g. deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe)
change those to 'universe multiverse':
