[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1004992] Re: Does not detect hotplugged storage device (floppy spins but never mounts)
> Your view of the floppy is just as well informed. well, I've no special view on floppy out of the fact that most of the machines you can buy in Europe don't have a floppy drive today and that most of the people working on the Ubuntu desktop don't own a such device which makes hard to work on any floppy related bug report -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004992 Title: Does not detect hotplugged storage device (floppy spins but never mounts) Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: floppy spins but never mounts.

Sebastien, Yes, the problem is specific to floppies. You know, another part of the Linux world maintained by Apple removed support for parallel ports because they believed in their infinite wisdom that parallel ports didn't exist any more, despite the fact MicrCenter had 30 different motherboards listed as "in-stock" on that very day which had PP. Your view of the floppy is just as well informed. Despite what you believe the floppy, and more notably the Super Floppy is still in wide use by professional writers who happen to make up a large section of the Linux community. I haven't had a chance to test with external CDR yet, but I believe it is all USB removable media drives. Most likely broken when they fixed thumb drive support. Jan, I assure you there was a floppy in the drive. I removed and replaced it many times. Computer did not mount. Rebooted to Windows worsta and was able to copy the files from that same floppy still in that same drive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004992 Title: Does not detect hotplugged storage device (floppy spins but never mounts) Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: floppy spins but never mounts.

I'm not sure if apport collects those logs at the same time and in the same conditions, but UdevMonitorLog shows info about a filesystem while GvfsMonitorLog & UdisksMonitorLog say that there is no medium in the drive? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004992 Title: Does not detect hotplugged storage device (floppy spins but never mounts) Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: floppy spins but never mounts.
