This is my second reply to your last suggestion...I just went back to your email from last Friday where you sent me a link to what you said was a correct copy of what 'sources.list' was supposed to look like. We never used that, but went another direction. Your version contains several lines here and there that are not in mine and there are also several lines at the end after what is the last line in my listing...just pointing that out to you because I hadn't looked at it before. Would it pay for me to delete my 'sources.list' in gedit and paste in yours or might that cause a more horrible situation?
