[solved] Can't Mount Disk

DarkCerberus · 2012-01-29 12:01:40

Hi - I'm trying to mount a dvd video game under wine on the MATE Desktop Environment without success, I've had a look on the Arch Linux forums but can't find the correct answer.

It keeps coming up with "Not Authorized" - I don't know what debug to post but my username on the Arch Linux OS is under these groups: root bin daemon sys adm disk wheel log games network video audio optical storage power users.

Any help would be appreciated!

How do you try to mount the dvd?
What wine version do you use?
Arch i686 or x86_64?
I usually mount cd/dvd manually and configured manually in winecfg that /mnt/dvd is a cd-rom ( use advanced options). I can't tell you exact tab name since I'm not at home right now, but I think it is "drives".
Please post your output from the mount command. I think there is another way to handle cd/dvd-drives in wine. Maybe others know how to.

I'm using i686, wine version is 1.3.37 and I've tried setting it as /mnt/dvd & cd but still won't mount also on my machine it is /media/ but that won't work either. Is there something which I haven't downloaded which requires disks to be mounted?

Update: I've had a look at what I was missing, and guess what I was missing polkit & polkit-gnome, both drives are now mounting the dvd video games - Thanks for your help McDoenerKing - how do I now mark this as solved?
