John, what makes you think this bug could be fixed. Neither a comment here, nor the status of the bug suggest that it is fixed. So please be patient and wait for a fix and stop spamming the subscribers of this bug, this is very annoying. Martin just wrote that the guys now understand the problem which just means that they know what is going wrong and why and possibly are able to fix it as they were able to reproduce it on my box now (I'm Björn Kautler). As it is clearly a bug, of course they will also fix it, that is just a thing that can not happen over night, so please be patient. Also it doesn't make any sense to try commands that are clearly stated to be incorrect. "gvfs-mount /dev/fd0" is incorrect as it is missing the "-d", so no sense in trying it. "gvfs-mount -d /dev/fd0" only works as root or maybe if you are in the floppy group, but then the same user who did the mount also has to unmount the volume, while this does not mount the floppy "into" the floppy drive icon in places, but parallel to it, like also this "voice to text" software does. Despite the error messages that appear with this command, the mounting itself works fine. Noone said that issueing this command is a fix, it was only part of investigating the source of the problem.
