Looks like a Java issue, compiz or something like that. Does it happen often? Does it go away if you wiggle the Window, resize it? What OS is it? Can you upgrade the Java and/or window manager? There are actually similar issues with dialog boxes, compiz and KDE in Ubuntu Lucid. Since it was very popular combination of buggy components at the time, the GUI actually wiggles the dialogs every time they appear on the screen so they get correctly repainted. > > Second it would be nice if I can start LCMC directly into advanced > mode in stead of having to click on the advanced select box (maybe > using a --advanced command line argument?) OK, that's simple, you got it in the next version. :) What do you need in the advanced mode? If it is something that many people use, it would be better to move it to the "not advanced" mode. > > Third, when adding a Filesystem resource LCMC detects block devices > that can be used, it also displays my OS partitions (/dev/sda1 and > /dev/sda5).

You can also enter them, so it is not completely impossible to do. When you create them with LCMC, it forgets to reload list of block devices, so that I have to fix. They will show up if you restart the LCMC and if they are on all nodes in the cluster. > > Fifth, it is not possible to create a filesystem on a Logical Volume > after creating it in LCMC, so I must go to the CLI to create a > filesystem (this is the only step I must do at the CLI) to be able to > mount / export the LV as for instance an NFS export using exportfs.
