This bug was fixed in the package udisks - 1.0.1-1ubuntu1
---------------
udisks (1.0.1-1ubuntu1) lucid-proposed; urgency=low
* Add 00git-fix-floppy-probing-hangs.patch: A lot of modern machines do not
have a floppy drive any more, but still have a floppy controller somewhere
(or at least the BIOS pretends to). Trying to open(/dev/fd0) on these
machines causes long hangs, which lead to long desktop startup times.
To fix this, avoid probing floppies for media in update_info().
nautilus/gvfs do not expect the media state to be correct for floppies
anyway. (LP: #539515)
