You might check our automount(er). There are utilities that will
automagically mount floppies. If I remember correctly a couple years ago
the interfered with formatting floppies. To get a floppy icon on the
kde desktop, right click on the desktop and choose new ->device. Then
choose floppy. It may have changed in the last couple releases but this
should be enough to get you going. Then right clicking the floppy icon
shoud give you a choice to mount or unmout as needed.
Please note that I have not used Debian based distros.

Well, I dunno if its me or the computer, here? When I put in a blank
floppy into my floppy drive, I don't see it pop up on the desktop,
like they do on the Mac's. But I thought I learned somewhere it was
listed in some folder, but where? I was wanting to put something on
that floppy to use on another computer later.
