Bug Description
Like bug 481184 I could never mount my floppy by the GUI, I could it mounting only by the terminal. Since one of the last online updates this did not work anymore:
werner@zuse:~$ sudo mount -v /dev/fd0 /mnt/
[sudo] password for werner:
mount: Es wurde kein Dateisystemtyp für /dev/fd0 angegeben
Werde den Typ vfat versuchen #translation: Will try type vfat
/dev/fd0 on /mnt type vfat (rw)
It seems to be mounted, no message in the logs, but it is not mounted:
werner@zuse:~$ sudo umount /dev/fd0
umount: /dev/fd0 ist nicht eingehängt #translation: ...is not mounted
2010-04-02 I installed 3 online updates:
devicekit-disks 007-2ubuntu5 -> 007-2ubuntu6
tzdata 2010e-0ubuntu0.9.10 -> 2010g-0ubuntu0.9.10
tzdata-java 2010e-0ubuntu0.9.10 -> 2010g-0ubuntu0.9.10
The first program seems to be relevant - and bingo, I can mount my floppy in a terminal.
But after the next reboot, mounting is impossible again.
Last but not least: It's not a hardware problem, I can mount after boot debian lenny.

i've got the same problem today but i cant say that problem is new as i rarely need to use floppy.
First i've put a floppy disk inside the reader and Lucid does not detect that new situation.
So i've ran MountManager and change setting to allow user to mount/unmount /dev/fd0 ( admin by default, so that seem a feature not a bug)
After giving user the right of mount/unmount, everything goes well. So that's seem normal.
