Public bug reported:

While installing Kubuntu Feisty Fawn Herd 1 I noticed that the partition
manager failed (it displays weird entries and refuses to display the
dialog to alter the partitions). I think it's because I had two
partitions on my disk, which were created with Windows XP. They were not
formatted, but had the partition ID for FAT 16.

Solution:
I altered the partition IDs with fdisk and formatted the partitions. Now the 
partition manager works again.
