No /dev/fd0 file ?

[Paul Dufresne]

Is there a known problem detecting floppy disk?
I ask because I've been having floppy disk access
on two fresh dapper computer today (Kubuntu).

Not sure that /dev/fd0 is not there on the other,
but it is absent on the one I use now.

I do indeed have a lot of bad stuff in dmesg:
