lvm version
   WARNING: Running as a non-root user. Functionality may be unavailable.
   LVM version:     2.02.54(1) (2009-10-26)
   Library version: 1.02.39 (2009-10-26)
   /dev/mapper/control: open failed: Permission denied
   Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.

I do not know how ancient it is, but it seems that is the one that is 
currently available as a package for ubuntu 10.10 
(http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/lvm2-udeb). Am I missing anything? 
The HD in question has a VG that is a few years old (and done in centos 
4.7).
