little problem with synaptica package manager

i just upgraded the kernel and now am running breezy 5.10. I am going thru the directions in how to setup the synaptic package manager from the ubuntu starter guide starter guide but my problem is when i try to make changes to the three repos as stated in the guide, i end up with the repos going back to their default states (official, restricted trying to enable uni and multi).

it's asks for my password when i access synaptic so i think i'm going in as root, or am i supposed to login as root?
 
You dont login as root in ubuntu.

I would suggest just editing the sources by hand. Open a console and type sudo vi (or whatever your favorite editor is) /etc/apt/sources.list

Then edit the file by hand and save it. Its very easy, for the most part you just change hoary to breezy.
