Hmm. Did you remember to update the package list after editing your
sources.list? 

$ sudo apt-get update

I'm not sure it's worth the trouble, really. The only packages in
Canonical's jaunty repository seems to be Adobe's Acroread and
Flashplugin. You can just go to
http://archive.canonical.com/pool/pool/partner/a/ to get those packages.
