Please help me do this edit in terminal

Please walk me through exactly what I type into terminal to do this edit:

Please edit '~/.pcsx/pcsx.cfg' like this.

==> change 'Cpu = 0' to 'Cpu = 1'

Source of the edit is: http://askubuntu.com/questions/78737...untu-16-04-lts

Assuming that you have gedit installed:

gedit ~/.pcsx/pcsx.cfg

Once you've made the requested edit change, close the gedit window and select "Save" when prompted.

I opened gedit and tried to find PCSX (a PS1 emulator), but I can't seem to find it using "open"

On another note "This bug was fixed in the package pcsxr - 1.9.94-2" If someone could tell me how to get that in terminal or download I'd appreciate it.

Did you try typing the full command, as I provided it, i.e. including the ~/.pcsx/pcsx.cfg portion, on the command line?

If you open gedit without any filename, you probably can't find the .pcsx directory in your home directory because directories with a . at the start of their names are normally hidden (pressing ctrl-h usually allows you to see them), but you shouldn't need to bother about that at all if you type in the whole command I gave you.

According to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcsxr, the latest version of pcsxr supported by Trusty Tahr (Ubuntu 14.04, which you have) is 1.9.92-4. If you want 1.9.94-2, then you'll probably either need to find a PPA that supports it for Trusty, or compile the source code on your machine.

I am going to go the route of finding a PPA. I'm still looking through webpages to find one.
