When you put the disk in the drive does it get mounted? Does an icon appear on your desktop?

Also, post the output of

cat /etc/fstab

[Latak]

alex@alex:~$ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/sda1
UUID=7d456b89-4455-425d-9a1b-06da0dcf7a66 / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
# /dev/sda5
UUID=1c8cd61d-21e5-4dc9-988f-2a7de5dd26e9 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0



And yes it does mount, i can click the icon and see all the files but i just cant open them

Interesting. Try

cd /media/cdrom0

and post relevant output of

ls -lrt

[Latak]

Ok

alex@alex:~$ cd /media/cdrom0
alex@alex:/media/cdrom0$ ls -lrt
total 130419

Ok post the output of

id alex

Im sure it will be 501, but just making sure. Im wondering if you dont have permissions to use the image viewer program, and thats whats giving you the error. Have you viewed images from the cdrom before? What program do you use? I think GQview is the xubuntu viewer, but Im not sure. Try

gqview

and point it at one of the files on your dvd

alex@alex:/media/cdrom0$ id alex
uid=1000(alex) gid=1000(alex) groups=1000(alex),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25( floppy),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),10 7(fuse),109(lpadmin),115(admin)



nope i have not looked at files from my cdrom before, this is a brand new computer. and i believe Image viewer is the program that i am trying to use

this is such a stupid problem to have lol
