Forgive me if I'm stating the obvious but for clarity, the above successful workaround does not repair the problem; with the "Storage Media" window and it's function with floppy drives. So this needs attention. What is the cause?
This is fundamental for floppy drives. Also; quite frankly, it's a little embarassing. While the problem may well be with KDE, it is with KDE on Kubuntu. -- media:/ does not handle floppy mounting correctly https://launchpad.net/bugs/30207 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
