Install Synaptic Package Manager
sudo apt-get install synaptic

Synaptic is one of the most amazing package managers out there, in fact, it was installed by default in
Ubuntu but later it was removed in the recent Ubuntu releases, but it still a good program to have for
those who want to manage their system packages easily without the need to deal with the command
line.

FIX SYSTEM ERROR MESSAGES
sudo apt-get remove apport

This is a very noisy thing in many Ubuntu releases, the “Apport” application which is responsible for
error reports and crash messages is not adjusted very well, which is the reason that it shows crash
messages all the time.

Herewith, I provide some additional information regarding bug

(567600), Ghemical's font problems, describing wwo scenarios.
On a freshly installed wheezy/sid installation of the Base system and

Standard system utilities, was installed the package gnome (3.0+7) and
all its dependencies. Hereafter, ghemical (3.0.0-1) (and all its
dependencies) was installed and started. ghemical failed to start and
died with the aforementioned 'GdkGLExt-WARNING **: cannot load
PangoFont'. So, the following packages were installed and ghemical
works again:
[INSTALL] x11-xfs-utils
[INSTALL] xfonts-100dpi
[INSTALL] xfonts-75dpi
[INSTALL] xfonts-scalable
[INSTALL] xfs
This fixed ghemical on this system, the program was used to draw some
structures, energy minimize them, some other modeling functions were
tried as well and all completed without errors.
Now, and this might be considered a serious addition to the current

bug report, on a freshly installed wheezy/sid installation of the Base
system and Standard system utilities, was installed the desktop
package kde-standard (i.e. kde-* 4.6.3) and all its dependencies.
Again, ghemical (3.0.0-1), and all its dependencies, were installed
and started. Again, and as expected, ghemical failed to start and died
with the aforementioned 'GdkGLExt-WARNING **: cannot load PangoFont'.
I thought to fix this by installing the following xfonts packages
x11-xfs-utils, xfonts-100dpi, xfonts-75dpi, xfonts-scalable, xfs.
However, this did NOT fix ghemical its font errors and the program
fails to start on a KDE installation...
This bug renders ghemical useless on KDE desktops, and it wouldn't

surprise me if it goes beyond the reported dependency problem. It
seems to stem from a font-related configuration or setting somewhere
in the package or its implementation in Debian.

LibDVDCSS is a library required for reading some DVDs. Unfortunately, due to legal issues, it is not
included by default. This repository is provided by Videolan, and requires a bit more code to add.

This PPA (WebUpd8 again), hosts the program Y PPA Manager. That's right, we're adding a PPA so we
can add PPAs. But that's not all it does, it can also remove, purge, check for duplicates and remove
broken ones.

CLEANUP
Some people like to clean up after themselves. I tend not to, but I know I should. These commands will
get rid of some of the chaff you may have created while messing around with your system.

WINE:

Does having Ubuntu 64 bit influence Wine

Yes, having Ubuntu 64 Bit will also set Wine as 64 bit. This will create several problems for many
Windows apps that only work on 32 Bit. To solve this you need to do the following after having
succesfully installed the PPA version as I mentioned above. Immediately afer installing the PPA wine
package and before opening winecfg open the terminal (Make sure you are at your home folder by
typing cd ~) and type the following:
rm -fr ~/.wine
export WINEARCH=win32
export WINEPREFIX="/home/USER/.wine"
winecfg
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
