Well I'm running 2 different distro's of Linux right now and I decided to make my Ubuntu partition my primary partition larger so I took 119.53 GB out of my other distro's partition and it became unallocated and then I figured Gparted would when I right click on it to resize/move give me the option of using it to make another partition bigger but it did not so I went Google searching on line and in one post I saw it said you had to format the unallocated space so I formatted it to ext4 the same as my primary partition but still no options to add it to any thing what do I do?

*UPDATE: I have included a picture my Ubuntu primary partition is highlighted which is the one I want to make larger the partition labeled extra is what I want to use to enlarge my primary partition.

You may need to use gparted live or boot your ubuntu live disc and install gparted to resize the partition, so that no partitions are mounted whilst you are working on them.
