i use lvm2 (2.01.04-5) on a plain sarge with kernel 2.6.8 and snapshots work 
without problems.
I also use lvm2 on sarge with other kernels (2.6.12, 2.6.16) and i've found 
out some problems. If there is to few free memory, sometimes snapshots can't 
be created. My workaround is, when creating a snapshot fails, i try it again. 
Within five tries it normaly works. It's not nice but it works for me.
