Thank you - it worked (well at least it has started downloading the files, I guess I will find out in about 30 mins if the whole upgrade will suceed ...)
g1aanis - you need to add the words "main restricted" into the file between breezy and universe I found the file in apt/etc (or was it etc/apt... can't remember and its in the middle of the upgrade now), and 1st attempt to edit it was read- only. I did su root gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and it asked for the password, then gave an error message, but opened the file in read/write mode so I obviously typed something wrong but fumbled it enough to edit!
