Hi Laurie,

Looks like the file is there.

Can you run the command:

        gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Do you get anything?

Second thing, the command to print out the path should be like this:

      echo $PATH

the word PATH has to be in UPPERCASE. It's important in Linux.

If you can get gedit to open the file (/etc/apt/sources.list), you can copy and paste the contents when  you reply.

Andrew.
