Unhappy Lost access to my floppy


Hi everybody!

It seems like I lost my floppy access. My dvd and cdrw drives seem to mount okay and work okay. The applet for media mount does not display the floppy icon no more that used to be there and I can not access it no more from it. My question is: Is there a command preferaly gui program to tell suse 10.1 to reconstruct and redetect my floppy drive so I can access it normaly with the help of the media mount applet that sits on the task bar. I a novice to linux but I know just a little bit more than a novice so take it slow please. Here is my fstab file:

/dev/hda2 / reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/hda3 /home reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 2
/dev/hda1 swap swap defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0

Thanks in advance
