Hi Mikkel,
You are quite right. The mount command shows:
<paste>
[root at athene setuptl]# mount | grep hda
/dev/hda on /media/TeXLive2007 type iso9660
(ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uid=1000,utf8)
[root at athene setuptl]#
</paste>
So I need to find a way to have hda mounted with exec permission *by
default*. So I don't have do a manual mount every time I insert a dvd or cd.
I found no such option in either ControlCenter or in gnome.
Do you have any idea how you can do that?
Guus.
