wine users - Jun 2012 - Unusable Font after upgrading to wine 1.4 (Ubuntu 12.04)

Hello,

today I upgraded my system from Kubuntu 11.04 to 12.04 and installed wine 1.4.
Now, most my Windows apps (e.g. the "configure wine" program) have
ugly, almost unreadable fonts
TTF-Fonts are installed and working properly when explicitly chosen, but all the
"standard" fonts (like for menus, window titles and so on) are bold,
grainy and not anti aliased.

I don't know which font is used for that elements nor do I know how to
change them. In Wine 1.3 every thing was smooth and nice.

It took me three hours of searching now with no avail.

Please help. It's so frustrating that with every new release something is
broken again. How comes that the developers don't notice this?

Nobody else has this problem? Unbelievable.
Meanwhile I did a completely fresh install of Kubuntu 12.04, installed wine,
tested the "configure wine" programm and it looked fine. Later on I
installed the ttf-mscorefonts-installer, and when I started my windows time
tracking program it not only looked ugly as before, but also reproducible
crashes when scrolling down a list. Gosh!

As uninstalling didn't help I finally installed linux from scratch a second
time, just to find out, that  ttf-mscorefonts-installer is not the bad guy. All
programms look ugly still and my time tracking program still crashes. Only the
"configure wine" programm obviously now has an explicit Arial font set
and that's why it looks good.

So finally, after two days of fruitless work it turns out, that Wine 1.4 is
totally unusable to me. The time tracking program is unique and vital for my
work and I cannot use it anymore.

It worked fine with Wine 1.0 to 1.3, as all the other programms did that I use,
but 1.0 - 1.3 is gone under Kubuntu 12.04

On my laptop running the 32 bit version of 12.04 Wine works fine, but on my 64
desktop system - no way.

So, if nobody can halp me here I would be happy if at least someone could
confirm (or decline) that 64 bit has a problem, maybe only on (K)Ubuntu.

Is there anybody out there with a running (and good looking) Wine on a 64 bit
Kubuntu 12.04? Maybe it's not a Wine but a (K)Ubuntu issue?

Does anybody know how to install a Wine 1.3 on Ubuntu 12.04

Please help. I've got to get back to work.
