------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-09 17:07 ------- Cool, works for me now! I was not able to test the gfloppy-related bug because it don't installs with the first CD and I was only able to download the first one (download quotas..) The rest of them: - deleting works properly now - remove the floppy, reinsert it and refresh works But: - Its not possible to delete files on a floppy in Nautilus (del-key generates an error-message, there is no menu-item for deleting a file) - error-message when copying a file with Konqueror on the floppy: permissions couldn't be change (this also bugs me when copying files to the windows partition in 9.0) - there's no floppy-symbol on the desktop (not very newbie-friendly) ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: Again, I am not sure, where to put the bug-report, hopefully this category is at least a little bit appropriate ;-) I don't know if all of this problem has the same bug as origin, but there are a lot of similar symptoms: - if I click on floppy in KDE, Konqueror opens and shows the contents of the diskette. When i delete some files, the files are gone but the space on disk doesn't grow. So if I delete a file from a full disk and try to copy the SAME file onto the disk afterwards, it fails ("No free space available"). - When I view a diskette with Gnome/Nautilus, eject the diskette, put it in the drive again and click on the refresh-button, Nautilus says, it has "no permissions" to view the diskette. From this moment, the same message appears also in Konqueror. When I try to access the floppy with the shell, it says "cd: /mnt/floppy/: Input/output error". After a restart everthing is fine again. This bugs renders it nearly impossible to use a lot of disks, because after every refresh, a restart is needed. - After I have formatted a disk in gfloppy, I often cannot access the floppy afterwards (no permissions). - When these things happens, there is always one of the following messages while the shutdown: "/mnt/floppy illegal seek" and "umount2: device or ressource busy" - is it normal, that df -h shows "none" as the filesystem? I hope this helps to find the underlying failure. BTW: I also had similar failures with 8.2 on another computer. If I should try anything specific with my 9.0b4-Installation to help Mandrake-team with this bug, just mail me, Michael
