KDE can't access to floppy disk

Hi, running SuSE 9.3 I can access to floppy disk (/media/floppy) from a terminal but not from GUI (KDE 3.4.0 level "b"). As I click on the floppy disk icon there is a message box that say: "The process for the protocol media is unespectly dead" or something like this (I've an italian installation) and the system isn't able to mount the floppy. If I access the /media/floppy with the konqueror browser all work fine, too. What should I do? Many thanks in advance for your answers Stefano
