Hi Pete, Hitting CR a second time when not seeing a reaction to the first CR improved the situation for me, too. (Got the crypto partition mounted after 1-3 attempts most of the time)
cryptsetup has been updated, it seems there are several issues involved and there is a partial fix: Version 2:1.0.6+20090405.svn49-1ubuntu7.1: * debian/cryptdisks.functions: - wrap the call to /lib/cryptsetup/askpass with watershed, to make sure we only ever have one of these running at a time; otherwise multiple invocations could steal each other's input and/or write over each other's output [...] * debian/cryptdisks-udev.upstart: new, additional upstart job run once for each block device, using the new crypttab_start_one_disk function, triggered by udev; this doesn't eliminate the possibility of a race with gdm when the decrypted volume isn't a 'bootwait' mount point (since gdm kills usplash), but it does eliminate the race between udev and cryptsetup.
