Right now, David, I am not sure if I have received other emails from you which 
I have followed prior to receiving this one.  In an attempt to get back to 
where we are both on the same page, I will give you a current, as of this 
moment copy of my cat /etc/apt/sources.list.  But before you read it, 
understand that of this moment, I have followed instructions of emails you 
sent in the past  where I removed all entries of wine, and as per your then 
instructions have installed Wine back in my computer now.  The version is Wine 
1.1.37.  I also have your e-sword installer in my computer.  If I go to 
Kmenu>System>(I have an entry, with Icon, which is entitled)e-sword-installer.  
When I click on the e-sword-installer to install e-Sword, I get a brief 
glimpse of a terminal, but it does not remain on the screen long enough to 
read it before it disappears.  No installation takes place.  I have attempted 
that procedure of trying to install again, and I copied the brief terminal 
page using the PrintScreen.  After you have read my current sources list, take 
a look at the screen print of the terminal page that appears when attempting 
to install e-Sword.  

After you have read my sources.list, then after you have viewed the screen 
print of the terminal page that opened when I attempted to install e-Sword, 
here are further complications that developed.

First, my Kmail panel is located at the top of my screen, by choice, so when 
the terminal page opened at the top of the screen, it covered my panel.  When 
I attempted to move the terminal page down a bit to uncover my menu panel (my 
menu panel hides until the cursor comes to the top of the screen) but another 
panel appeared which covered both the terminal page, as well as, my menu 
panel, so I was unable to use the (top line of any application, which you can 
use to drag a page or resize or remove a page) to drag the terminal page down 
a bit so the Menu panel could open.  I was kind of locked in that position 
with an inability to close the open window.  

To get out of this locked-in-place state, I pressed Alt +F2 and typed in 
Konsole.  I then entered the command sudo shutdown now -r and re-booted to get 
a workable screen.  After all this happened, I am writing you now.

At this point read the sources.list, then view the attached png..  If you 
understand my current dilemma, please tell me how to proceed.

Because to view the menu bar that covers the address bar of the shell page and 
the Menu panel, to get a png for you to see, the size of the png is too large 
for the list, 603.9KiB.  The bar that covers has a few icons on it and is 
about one inch high, the entire width of the screen.  [Glenview is the 
application that opened the page.]  I was unable to resize that portion to get 
the size down.  If you want to see it, I can send it to your personal 
location.  Remember, if I do, it is 613KiB in size so if you have any 
restriction that might keep a png that size from downloading, I will be unable 
to do so.

Thanks for your patience and help.

Steven

I am not sure how we got mixed up, but I hope this gets us back on the same 
page.

Thanks!
Steven
