Really? Drag them WHERE? I see no Floppy Drive icon in Thunar? If you have this working and there is a way to do this in Xubuntu please tell me. Floppy drives have been Broken in both Hoary and Breezy! Can you tell me of a way to do this in Xubuntu?

Hi Colin,

I've tested this now, and it looks like I was wrong. Thunar didn't automount my floppy. However, you can easily mount it by hand like this:
$ mount /media/floppy0

it will then be available in /media/floppy, where you can drag stuff on/from it, just like with normal folders.
