Hi Samran -
I'm relatively new to these parts, but I think the answer depends on how much
data you're trying to migrate from prior versions of Postgres. If you're just
getting started with PostGIS, I'd remove all of those packages and follow the
instructions linked below. After that, go ahead and reinstall GeoServer. It
should see that you've already install Postgres and PostGIS and be just fine.
(I think...) If you need to migrate data, SQL scripts, etc., I'd suggest you
read up on migration or get some other advice. I'd like to help, but don't have
any experience in those areas.
Good luck! ; )
Thanks, Jeff

As Jeff said, installing on Ubuntu 12.04 using apt-get is easy, and I've only
used stackbuilder once. You don't really need it.
