Bug Description

When i inserting a floppy disk into the drive and
clicking on floppy drive item under "devices" on the nautilus sidebar nothing happens.
Floppy drive works well with windows on the same machine so it's not a hardware problem.
In other words floppy drive is unusable.

Thank you for your bug report, can you access it from other locations like the computer view? Does it work using gvfs-mount?

I cannot access it from other locations. Clicking the icon from the
computer view shows : Unable to mount location.No medium in the drive.
Also tried gvfs-mount -d /dev/fd0 and the output is: No volume for device
file /dev/fd0"
It seems that this bug appears on debian also(
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=561746) and earlier
versions of Ubuntu (
