I could see nothing in the list that had to do with Adept or Konsole?

I attempted to open a shell after a while.  The computer gave me some help, 
but when I did what it said, the screen returned to the Sun Java agreement.  
There is no place on the document to accept the agreement and no way to get 
out except Quit.  It is on the screen right now.  Any ideas?
