hi tonlee!
REMEMBER: only main. NO contrib and ABSOLUTELY NOT non-free.

This page will help you understand how to set your sources.list properly -> https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList


I can already tell you to set it like this (no need for backports unless you want to mix stable components of Debian with components from Debian Testing, although adjusted and recompiled, which can lead to a non-stable system, that is crashes and general headaches). Read about backports here: http://backports.debian.org/


deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main



This is all you need in your sources.list
cheers!
