Hello all.....I have not been able to use my floppy drive since my last installation of Knoppix. I didnt do anything different as far as I know. I cannot mount it, cause i get an error. I checked a few config files that were suggested and tried different lines but it is no use. If i put a floppy in drive and try to open it, it seems to show that it is open but nothing is on disk. I compared config files to my desktop, which has a perfectly operating mountable floppy drive and the files are the SAME! What am i missing here? Is there some other way to check the floppy? I have resorted to copying things from writable cd's. Its a waste of a cd most of the time if all i want to do is copy a wallpaper or some thing little so i usually just dont add anything unless i have to. I have tried creating another floppy icon for desktop, but it behaves the same way and is not mountable. The mount option is there when you right click but it comes back with the same error. My CD rom seems to work all the time just right. And I can access the HDD no prob. Just that miserable floppy!!!!! If anyone can make any more suggestions that would be great...bob
