Hello Curtis, First thanks for your help. I think I made a bit of a mess. I wasn't able to start my PC, for some reason I still have to find out, it freezed on "checking battery state...", but this is not your problem. The fact is that I installed today's Precise Pangolin iso on the sda5 partition (it was free for tests) the Precise Pangolin I can't start as it freezes is on sda1. I wanted to try to retrieve and compile GParted from the git source code repository on sda5, but first I installed Gparted from Ubuntu repositories just to verify that it would have the same problems I had on sda1. The fact is that Gparted installed from Ubuntu repositories just works fine on sda5, so probably the problem I have on the sda1 partition and that I have been reporting as a bug is something else. What should I do at this point ? Sorry for the mess.
