Well, the OP said he had Ubuntu, but not which version. I assumed
12.04 since he also asked how to install Synaptic. I think (but I'm
not 100% sure) that 12.04 is the first Ubuntu that doesn't come with
Synaptic pre-installed.

Some older versions of Ubuntu have a different name of that package,
and I think a few fonts were missing as well.



Kind regards
