[wplug] Audio CD autorun problem, RH 7.3

[Frank W. Holden Jr.]

Well, I had to do some more checking and found my fix was to give EACH 
user a place to mount the different drives. In my case I have 
/mnt/floppy , /mnt/cdrom and /mnt/zip100.0 owned by 
<username>.users... Each user can have their own mount point. Within 
the Gnome  GUI I have made icon links to the mount program and edited 
the properties to reflect who, what, when, where for the mount on a 
user basis. This will allow users to mount the drive to that 
directory. I don't think it will have anything to do with the self 
starting audio CD player, BUT if you don't have permissions to use 
that program then it will not work. You may want to chmod to 764 or 
774 /usr/bin/gtcd...

Was just a thought!
