I don't know what you want. In Linux, the ext2 filesystem pretty much "defragments" itself. What is your OS?

What makes you think you have a fragmented disk?

I have ASPLinux, I heard that ext2 do not need to be defragmentated, but some say that there are many Linux defragmentation soft

There really are very few - Unix filesystems in general do not need to be defragmented.
What "some say " may not be correct.

I just did a google search - all I found were paritition managers for Linux.

There was no standalone disk defgramenter software - you might have better luck finding one. Just don't pay a lot for it because you really do not need it.
