Bug Description
Lubuntu 20.04.1 daily LIVE QA-test on
dell [optiplex] 745 (c2d-6600, 6gb, amd/ati radeon rv516/x1300/x1550)
Opening random programs, one program selected was KDE Partition Manager, which failed to be usable.
** Actual results
Opened KDE Partition Manager
A Scanning box/window opened and is still reporting "Scanning device '/dev/fd0'" ~five minutes later, and is not advancing. A circling logo occurs when pointer is over the KDE Partition Manager window.
** Expected Results
The box has no floppy drive, so I don't expect it to stop at scanning /dev/fd0, and KDE Partition Manager should be usable.
This issue has been noticed before, but only reported in comments (I believe), or if reported it didn't include `dmesg` output & I changed it to incomplete.. (when/if I find it, I'll mark it duplicate of this)

What was missing on prior reporting of this issue I believe (dmesg)
Of note - last time when I rebooted (in hopes of getting `dmesg`) it didn't occur again..
This is also a different box; last box was d755-5 I believe (different but similar model dell)
