Mount floppy in SuSe 9.3
Mucks! Look what I found.
 A way around the floppy mount bug. On desktop- right click and create new- Link to Device- Floppy Device- click device tab- and choose "dev/fd0(media/floppy) Click OK. It worked for me.  |

Have I missed something? What's all this about a floppy mount bug? Is it only in SuSE? I use Xandros 2.0 and if I need to use a floppy (hardly ever) then I just put it in the floppy drive and read or write to it, same as I used to with Windows.

Yep, there is, and confirmed by Novell ... they say it is a KDE 'problem' we just use LadyPcer's neat little fix.

I use KDE on Xandros, never had any trouble with the floppy. I'll make note of the fix for future reference, thankyou.
