Guys I do NOT care what you at UBUNTU are smoking but it must be good. After reading good part of this, it is clear to me that Floppy support is BROKEN BY PURPOSE per #271.
It is unacceptable that when one runs STUPIDLY BASIC CALL like "mount /dev/fd0 /dir" this call _silently_ fails and Devs consider it "well worth the desktop loading speedup". Had enough of this not-usable-by-design. Upgrading to Debian A.S.A.P. Sorry for the rant but this was a last straw. This culture of not-newest-thing-is-not-worth-our-time makes me sad. It is precisely what will break Ubuntu's bone and keep Windows at the top. -- Clicking on floppy gives "no device media found" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441835 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
