GParted 0.7.0 is less than ideal, so am looking for something else. Is there a credible alternative?
[update] The two issues I was having had nothing to do with GParted.

1^^ This. GParted is the default for partition editing tasks on Linux. I would not know what is not 'credible' so, pray tell, what bothers you about it?wzzrd– wzzrd2011-02-06 21:32:13 +00:00Commented Feb 6, 2011 at 21:32

3Did you find that this was related to your USB stick problem (unix.stackexchange.com/questions/7028/…)? If so would you mind updating this question? It sounds more like a distribution-related (automounter) problem than a problem with gparted.ithcy– ithcy2011-02-07 18:07:34 +00:00Commented Feb 7, 2011 at 18:07

Unless something changed recently GParted is de facto standard tool. The only viable alternative are partially CLI partially GUI tools like cfdisk.

partitionmanager is a KDE/Qt gui using the same libs GParted uses. (afaik) It is almost feature-equivalent.
As of now, it lacks support for setting file system labels on some file systems, where GParted can set them just fine.(eg. fat32) Other than that, it works just like GParted.
