Yes, if I manually do mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt it works. My point is that double clicking on the floppy icon in gnome won't work, neither would using mount without specifying fs (autodetection). After loading the module, autodetection works.

$ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
$ sudo modprobe msdos
$ sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt
