I have ssh on Björn Kautler's machine now (clean karmic) and took a look at it. Keeping some notes:

 * devkit-disks --mount /dev/fd0 -> works (unmount, too)
 * gvfs-mount -li -> floppy appears as a volume
 * gvfs-mount -d /dev/fd0 -> works, floppy is mounted:

Volume changed: 'floppy0'
  Volume(0): floppy0

Mount added: 'floppy0'
  Mount(0): floppy0 -> file:///media/floppy0

I don't see duplicated gvfs volumes and don't get "no medium detected" errors with those command line tools. Can others confirm this?

So it seems to be a problem with the nautilus integration. Tentatively moving assignment upwards to gvfs for now.

Can you please open the computer place, do a screenshot, try to click on the floppy icon, and do another screenshot of the error message and the updated computer place? (Please move the error dialog and window side by side so that the screenshot includes both).
