[sorry; been going like crazy lately, and hadn't had time to get back to 
this.]

I tried upgrading to a 2.6.16 kernel, and LVM tools version (debian 
package) 2.02.02-1.. still get the exact same error:

fs:~# lvcreate -L1G -s -n Documents-backup /dev/HomeVG/Documents
   LV HomeVG/Documents-backup in use: not deactivating
   Couldn't deactivate new snapshot.
fs:~# lvscan | grep Documents
   ACTIVE            '/dev/HomeVG/Documents' [10.00 GB] inherit
   ACTIVE            '/dev/HomeVG/Documents-backup' [1.00 GB] inherit

Any other ideas?

Thanks!
