Grub2 & windows

I installed Karmic using ext4 and am very satisfied with the results
considering it is still alpha. I have one problem (at the moment :-) ).
When booting my grub (which I presume is grub2) didn't recognize my
vista dual boot. I went into /boot/grub/grub.cfg but it seems very
different from grub legacy. How do I enable windows to appear and boot
on grub2?
Below is my grub.cfg:

# from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub

if loadfont /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 ; then
set gfxmode=640x480
insmod gfxterm
insmod vbe
if terminal_output gfxterm ; then true ; else
# For backward compatibility with versions of terminal.mod that don't
# understand terminal_output
terminal gfxterm
