I have had the same problem on two desktops. Both had Ubuntu 8.04LTS and neither would mount the floppy drive and the light stayed on all the time for both of them. On one of the desktops I have upgraded to 8.10 and I still have the problem I initially tried the floppy cable in each of the four different configurations without any success. I now know that the cable is connected correctly and that it is the OS. On the desktop that still has 8.04LTS the floppy icon does show up in the [Places] menu, but not on the 8.10 desktop.
I am hoping that the developers will find a solution for all of us in this matter. -- floppy disk drive not detected (module not loaded) in Intrepid Alpha 4 kernel 2.6.27-2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/255651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
