I had this problem when I first upgraded to Gutsy, then I removed
"evms", and it went away.
Then we had an automatic upgrade come through, and it installed "evms-
activate", and now I have the problem back. I can not remove or kill the
evms-activate process, it's grayed out.

I have three such exclude lines in mine. Instructions above are just
for sysfs_devices stanza? Yep, that change alone worked.
I hope this will actually be fixed for the Gutsy release. It's really
bad. I appeared to be averaging over 80% CPU from this before I modified
the evms.conf file. Thing
Another option, which I did, is to change the evms.conf's line "exclude
[ ]" to "exclude [ * ]".

Yes. The new evms caused my laptop to fail to boot. LiveCD -> chroot

This is not only an EVMS related bug. I currently use Device Mapper to
access the host protected area of my laptop's HD. I can't create a
partition for it (that makes my dual-booted Windows crash), but a linear
devicemap can make this part accessable for linux. Ofcourse since

Martin now I think evms is removed from default packages, so if you have

I also have this issue but would like to add one more thing: Compiz
didn't run for me. Even manually enabling it I get an error saying
Compiz can't start.
After removing evms last night, this morning when I tried enabling

the solutions is already provided by link provided by Richard Kleeman:

The end result is that a single disk cannot be used both for EVMS and for
mounting the kernel's built-in partitions.
There are three solutions to this problem.
I applied the fix to /etc/evms.conf and stopped and then started

its all fixed now , lets push this out to the repos.

I had the same problem. The udevd was using lot of CPU and writing the

As a work around, excluding any devices which are mounted externally to
evms in sysfs_devices section of /etc/evms.conf works fine and allows
the continuing use of evms to manage devices which are not otherwise

I guess this only works if you are using entirely separate disks in
evms.

In case that's not obvious from the above, "aptitude remove evms" gets
rid of the problem. I suppose if you don't know what evms is, then
you're probably not using it (unless someone else configured your
system; you should ask them then).
