The KDE frontend work seems to have been done now, so I think this bug
is fixed at last.

This was fixed for the GTK frontend in ubiquity 1.7.7:

* Replace the resize slider with a custom widget in gtk_ui.
However, the same work needs to be done for the KDE frontend, I think.

perhaps the text new partition size should simply be changed to new
size of partition. Then the idea of resize and use free space makes
sense.
But i think a graphic showing the sizes of both partitions with a bar in
the middle that you can slide would be best, to make it really obvious.

The fact that 'New partition size' refers to the new size of the old partition
is clearly problematic. We should probably avoid the word 'New' altogether.
Perhaps:
Original partition size: X
Ubuntu partition size: Y
Targeting for Hardy.

I consider myself an experienced user, and I have misread this UI
before, and found myself again confused by it when installing Gutsy. It
should be easy to fix, especially with the suggestions given below. I'm
assigning it to the ubuntu-installer team to be fixed for Hardy.

NOTE: string could fix this, it is silly to force people to have a
confusing install. Definitely shouldn't be in the next LTS release.

The Dutch translation is confusing in the same way. Apparently it is the
size of the new partition, not the new size of the existing partition,
but I wasted an hour because I interpreted it the other way.
Suggestion: change Nieuwe partitiegrootte to Grootte van nieuwe

I even remembered it the wrong way around; go figure. I'm suggesting
Nieuwe grootte bestaande partitie now. :)

I don't think any new dialog sections are necessary, just rewording. As
pointed out, the phrase in English New partition size can mean:
Size of (the) new partition
or
New size of (the) partition
Just reword it to the latter, maybe adding in GB or in MB. This isn't an
issue in most languages
I'm installing Feisty on my work laptop and this confused me. Also,
answers on ubuntuforums.org were not convincing and went both ways as to
if this referred to the size of the new partition --New Partition
Size-- or the new size of the existing partition --New Partition
Size--.
Too bad it's
