Public bug reported:
Every few seconds, when running the latest kernel (2.6.30-9-generic) Linux
appears to think that there is a floppy that it can't read from. I have
attached the output of dmesg and I used "ubuntu-bug -p linux" to report this.
When I am typing, however, output of this doesn't occur, however, when I am not
typing, every 8 seconds, this appears on a tty (not in gnome-terminal, however).
This does not interfere with the command I am typing. For example, if I were to
be typing "/etc/init.d/g" and I pause right there, the message pops up, and I
finish with "dm restart" It would run just fine.
The problem also occurs while using a text editor such as nano. The text would
appear in the lines that are being edited, however, if I move the cursor over
top of them, they go back to what is actually in the text file.
I am running a Thinkpad T43 with 1 GB RAM, 40 GB HDD, 1.86 GHz Pentium M
Processor. There is no floppy drive built in.
This bug does not exist in old kernel versions (2.6.24 is the earliest kernel
version I remember. I first started using Ubuntu at Hardy).
