Bug Description
In Karmic GNOME, floppies are detected correctly by linux, udev, devkit-disks, and gvfs. However, when clicking on the floppy icon in GNOME, you get a "no medium found" error.
Remote reproducer: gvfs-mount -li
- When you just start that with no other processes running, you get a correct "volume" for /dev/fd0 ("floppy0").
- When you start it through dbus-launch, you get a floppy0 "drive" instead, and no volume

In bug 23309 we disabled partition table probing for floppy devices.
Unfortunately, the partition table prober is also used for determining if media is inserted by setting DKD_MEDIA_ AVAILABLE.
So media detection on floppies is now broken.
We should move that detection elsewhere.
