Trying to install wine1.7 on Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit, and i'm not sure what this means, help is greatly appreciated. I already ran sudo apt-get update and get this:

Reading package lists... Done
W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable/main amd64 Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/dl.google.com_linux_chrome_deb_dists_stable_main_binary-amd64_Packages)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

So I run apt-get update and:

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?

This is all very stressing because I have been trying to get Wine for the past week and had to reinstall and IT STILL WON'T WORK.
