Hmm. So I am not going going crazy after all.

Use "setfdprm", in my case, I did a "setfdprm -p 1440/1440". The man page
may be helpful. Why the floppies on two of my systems broke is a bit of a
mystery. One I have been running 2.1 kernels on (at 2.1.46 now) so I sort
of maybe understand but the other is and has been at 2.0.29 for some time
now.
