If sudo becomes a chore you could write a simple udev rule that adds back the floppy group, just to /dev/fd0, or relaxes the permissions. The bug report mentioned that adding back the full rule was a bad idea, but I think it would be safe for just the floppy (But don't hold me to it! :) ) -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 6FAB5CD5
