Check the mount options used to mount the DVD. If I remember
correctly, the noexec option is used by default. (Running the mount
command will show all mounts.) You may have to use gnome-mount with
the -o option to specify your own options when mounting the DVD. The
gnome-mount name page also gives you some options on making sure
that DVD always gets mounted the way you want.

Hi Mikkel,
You are quite right. The mount command shows:
<paste>
[root@athene setuptl]# mount | grep hda
/dev/hda on /media/TeXLive2007 type iso9660
(ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uid=1000,utf8)
[root@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.
