Does /etc/postgresql-common/user_clusters exist? If not, you have struck a
known bug in the Ubuntu packaging that I was told has since been fixed. An
update should fix things (sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade).
Or 'sudo /etc/postgresql-common/user_clusters' will get you going.

If this doesn't help, you can open a support request at
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-8.1/+tickets

Or, if you think you know what is going wrong, a bug report at
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-8.1/+bugs might be
more appropriate.
