           Summary: floppy drive doesn't work in factory kernel 2.6.24-rc6-
                    13-default
           Product: openSUSE 11.0
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i686
        OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Kernel
        AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: spameman@xxxxxxx

          Found By: Customer


I have installed the latest factory kernel 2.6.24-rc6-13-default from the
repository
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_Factory/ onto
my OpenSuse 10.3 Retail installation to troubleshoot a network card problem. 
By accident I noticed that the floppy disk doesn't work at all with this new
kernel. I can't mount or run

dd if=/dev/fd0 of=/tmp/fd0.img

In /var/log/messages the following messages are printed:

Jan  1 10:32:14 leela kernel: floppy0: probe failed...
Jan  1 10:32:20 leela syslog-ng[2683]: last message repeated 15 times
Jan  1 10:32:20 leela kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
Jan  1 10:32:26 leela kernel: floppy0: probe failed...

I double checked with the original 2.6.22.13-0.3-default kernel of 10.3 that
the floppy and the driver is ok. No problems works without any problems.
