ubuntu utility partition

I want to know how to re-install my ubuntu utility partition. I'm not sure why it stopped comming up, but I would like to get it back.

what do you mean by "stopped comming up"??

I do not use Ubuntu, but I think the default partition manager should be gparted (as in many Debian-based distro), so my first guess would be to bring up a terminal and type

Code:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall gparted

or

Code:

sudo aptitude reinstall gparted

depending on which one is your favourite package manager...

The default for Ubuntu is no longer gparted, but palimpsest. Please use apt-get and not aptitude.

Code:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall palimpsest
