What did you do prior to getting into this situation?

Firstly, run pg_lsclusters and see if your cluster is in there. If not
I suggest you explain more clearly what you did. Also, read the
documentation in /usr/share/doc/postgresql-8.2/README.Debian.gz and see
if it puts you on the right track.

Have a nice day,
