Bug Description

I've been working with the developer's to test the proposed dmraid support in gutsy.

So far i have fixed dmraid complaining about no raid5 support by following these two bugs

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dmraid/+bug/102973
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/97655

and i have followed this bug too.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dmraid/+bug/106177

There is still a problem though and I'm not sure what is causing it.

my raid partitions show up in /dev/.static/dev/mapper, but they are useless here. They do not show up where they belong in /dev/mapper.

re-running dmraid -ay results in this

RAID set "nvidia_edjdcidj" already active
ERROR: opening "/dev/.static/dev/mapper/nvidia_edjdcidj" (which doesn't exist, nvidia_edjdcidj1 and nvidia_edjdcidj2 do)

Replicated in Gutsy Tribe 5, using isw. dmraid -si shows device, but it can't be made active. Kernel modules load and unload and reload with no errors in log. No devices show up /dev/mapper/ - control file does get created.
