I have this bug on a Sony laptop with a removable floppy drive that may be used occasionally. I see repeated attempts in the logs to mount a floppy when the drive is not attached. This also prevents USB drives from auto-mounting and makes playing DVD movies impossible.

I didn't have the issue in Karmic. It first showed up in one of the Lucid betas and is still present in Lucid final. I have disabled the floppy controller in BIOS for now.
