For resizing the simplest thing to do is install gparted.

I recommend gparted as well.

As far as the X-FI sound card, I don't have any personal experience with it, but a quick scan of google search results leads me to believe there are still no linux drivers for it.  What a shame.

thats mostly the fault of creative who doesn't want to help the driver developing community...

If you have problems with the gparted-live-cd (a friend of me had them), try the System-Rescue-CD, it also includes gparted and works fine.
