To summarize: I believe we have 2 problems now:
1. nautilus tries to mount floppy drives at startup. Maybe it has always done this, but I think in year 2010 it could also be removed. I guess many of the floppy controllers existing today don't have a floppy drive attached. At least not in laptops. And because automounting cannot work when the system is already running the user needs to learn to use the disk mounting applet or some other mechanism anyway. I guess nobody wants to reboot just to get an fd mounted. 2. mount should really fail and abort in a couple of seconds if there is no success in reading anything from an fd. The old 2 minutes seem already well overdimensioned, but the current 19 are clear nonsense. -- Attempts to mount floppy despite no media present - disable automount https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539515 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
