Ditto for me on my machine, which does not have a floppy drive. I had the 'unrecoverable error' during initial installation and the hang-up from the login screen to when the GNOME panels loaded. Ubuntu automatically inserted an entry in /etc/fstab for my floppy:
#/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 and there were entries present in gvfs-mount -li for a floppy drive. Upon commenting the entry in /etc/fstab and disabling the floppy in my BIOS, it was initially enabled though physically non-existent, the hang-up is gone and then entry in gvfs-mount -li is also gone. -- Attempts to mount floppy despite no media present - disable automount https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539515 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
