Hi pp06610, please do not try to apply patches by hand. The patch file for this bug fix is rather simple, but most patch files aren't. There is an extra application called "patch" that does the work for you.
First, download the patch file "impressive.patch" to a convenient location. In this example, I'll assume that you have downloaded the file to your home directory. Then open a console window and run the following command: sudo patch --backup /usr/bin/impressive ~/impressive.patch This will apply the patch and create a backup (/usr/bin/impressive.orig) in case things go wrong. You need superuser rights (sudo), because normal users do not have sufficient rights to change the files located in /usr/bin/. If you are uncomfortable with using the console, look for someone who is used to it or do a bit of googling first.
