Public bug reported: The floppy drive on my computer does not work from the file manager in Gnome. My computer is a Dell XPS 700. It can be mounted manually from the command line. Also, SD cards don't work either on a standard USB SD card reader. Both work in Slackware. The floppy drive is a standard floppy drive (not USB) and it works under Slackware and FreeDOS! Not being able to access the floppy drive is a major bug in any operating system. I might go back to Slackware if this bug isn't fixed.
