Package: udisks Version: 1.0.1+git20100614-3 Severity: normal udisks-daemon seems to monitor the first floppy drive (/dev/fd0), and unmounts the drive if any attempt is made to mount it manually. However, it doesn't mount the drive automatically either.
If I add another floppy drive to the machine (/dev/fd1) then I can manually mount the drive and use it. The floppy drive functionality is somewhat broken for the end-user with 1 floppy drive as the floppy disk cannot be mounted automatically (Places -> Floppy Drive) or manually (mount command). -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_IN, LC_CTYPE=en_IN (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages udisks depends on: ii dbus 1.2.24-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libatasmart4 0.17+git20100219-2 ATA S.M.A.R.T. reading and parsing ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.88-2.1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.48-5 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgudev-1.0-0 164-3 GObject-based wrapper library for ii libparted0debian1 2.3-5 The GNU Parted disk partitioning s ii libpolkit-backend-1-0 0.96-4 PolicyKit backend API ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.96-4 PolicyKit Authorization API ii libsgutils2-2 1.29-1 utilities for devices using the SC ii libudev0 164-3 libudev shared library ii udev 164-3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages udisks recommends: ii dosfstools 3.0.9-1 utilities for making and checking ii hdparm 9.32-1 tune hard disk parameters for high ii mtools 4.0.12-1 Tools for manipulating MSDOS files ii ntfs-3g 1:2010.3.6-1 read-write NTFS driver for FUSE ii ntfsprogs 2.0.0-1+b1 tools for doing neat things in NTF ii policykit-1 0.96-4 framework for managing administrat Versions of packages udisks suggests: pn cryptsetup <none> (no description available) pn mdadm <none> (no description available) pn reiserfsprogs <none> (no description available) pn xfsprogs <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information
