for more on the floppy subject on karmic and lucid. there are well over 200 posts. sometimes I ask myself, how many bugs and posts would be required to get this/these issue/es solved once and for all in ubuntu releases ? I mean, is it acceptable to see users turned off and give up on ubuntu because of its inability to mount floppy media and see win fly through it ? is it a reason to not make work a basic computer device because of rants that it is an obsolete technology ? I know quite a few people and fairly large offices after experimenting with ubuntu for a while that went back to win after it was discovered this issue.
