If you're using Dolphin in KDE 3.5.10 go to /etc/apt/ and right click on 
sources.list.  Select Actions > Edit as root.  Type in your password and 
KWrite should open allowing you to edit and save sources.list.

If not, you could open Konsole, cd to /etc/apt and type 

	kdesudo kate source.list

	or

	kdesudo kwrite source.list

input your password, edit, and save.
