I uploaded the patch to lucid-proposed, now needs to be ack'ed by
another member of the SRU team.

** Description changed:

- This causes long desktop session startup delays when the kernel detects
- a floppy drive which is not actually physically present, just enabled in
- the BIOS.
+ IMPACT: This causes long desktop session startup delays when the kernel
+ detects a floppy drive which is not actually physically present, just
+ enabled in the BIOS.
  
  WORKAROUND: Disable floppy in BIOS
+ 
+ FIX: Pushed upstream to
+ http://cgit.freedesktop.org/udisks/commit/?id=ca93d4e2d and will
+ commit/upload to sid and sync to maverick ASAP.
+ 
+ REGRESSION POTENTIAL: This only affects floppy drives. They have never
+ been automounted anyway, since automatic media checks do not work for
+ floppies. Users have to right-click and select "Check for media" for
+ floppies. In theory this SRU could break this manual mounting of floppy
+ drives, so this use case needs to be checked for verifying this SRU.
