See, here it says what's wrong. Now let's have a look at line 49:
13619.0 is probably not a valid, you should comment out that line and see what happens. Which wasn't so hard to find out, so please invest a little time yourself before posting next time.

:-) Ok, if you are that new, then maybe I sounded too harsh (but the message is still true ). Maybe you should buy a linux book or learn the basics off some webpage, but let me help you with this particular problem:
Pico is one of the easier editors, you could use that for sure (but I don't know if well myself). What I've found most people were familiar with is the norton commander clone "mc", which has a built-in editor. Run "mc", select the file and press F4 (the numbers on the bottom are for the function keys).
Edit, save with F2.
thank you very much squisher
it worked with pico
first I changed them to 50-80
can you tell me the best parameters
i'll try the mc
i have another question
i'm in the KDE in resolution 1786x.... with 60hz refresh (17inch samsung,radeon 9550)
and when i make the resolution 1280x1024 the windows are very huge
i have to install the sound and the network card
i'll try it by myself
if i didn't made it i'll ask with the hope for good patient people who will help
you helped me very much
yes i didn't think about what was written, i'll see better next time
thank you again
