Title:
  constant polling of USB floppy drive, independent of distro

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 3.11.0-13.20-generic 3.11.6

  Tested on 2 separate machines, one running Xubuntu 13.10 and the other
  openSUSE 13.1. No disk is in, yet the drive constantly spins and makes
  a dull sound every few seconds like it's moving resetting the drive
  head position. After a disk is inserted and the initial read takes
  place, this constant polling behavior stops. It only occurs when there
  is no disk in the drive.
