On the live CD its in Applications > Administration > GNOME Partition Editor, in installed Ubuntu you need to open a terminal and do sudo apt-get install gparted, then it will be in Applications > Administration > GNOME Partition Editor.

Yeah, drivers tend to lag a bit with nvidia, but they lag a lot for ATI. I think they just added support for the X1*** series like 3 months ago or something. Whereas nvidia's G80 drivers are already out for Linux in beta form. I think it might have something to do with the fact that nvidia uses one standard binary that is OS independant, so if they write a G80 driver for Windows, they also have written it for Linux and Mac OS as well. I don't know if this is how ATI's drivers work too or not, but it would make a great deal of sense for it to work that way.

Ubuntu's installations a lot different from the last time I installed it. I'm still running Breezy xD
