Comment: Thanks or the reply, Martin. The behavior has changed recently, possibly due to the latest updates (in both breezy and dapper flight 4). Now what happens is that once I put the floppy in the disk drive, it takes about 2 minutes (!) for the green light to turn off, but after that, it mounts and opens up a window in the file manager, displaying all the files on the drive. When I unmount it, by right-clicking on the icon in the file manager, it unmounts nice and fast but displays an error: Unable to eject media. This makes sense because the floppy drive does not support autoejecting. Remounting it again causes it to take about another 2 minutes, but evenutally it opens a window and functions properly. Here is the output you requested: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/mtab /dev/hda1 / ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 0 proc /proc proc rw 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0 tmpfs /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-686/volatile tmpfs rw,mode=0755 0 0 shm /dev/shm tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,size=10M,mode=0755 0 0 /dev/sda /media/floppy vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=winnt,uid=1002,gid=1002,umask=077,iocharset=utf8 0 0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /etc/mtab -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 482 2006-02-20 12:08 /etc/mtab Hope this helps. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
