DVD-Video UDF shows "access denied" for non-root after automount

[Andrey Bachmaga]

Details: DVD-UDF-Video is written (I believe) in Vista; it automounts well, except that no one can cd to "/media/SAMSUNG DVD RECORDER VOLUME" except root.

The rights on "/media/SAMSUNG DVD RECORDER VOLUME" (and any files inside) is:
dr--r--r-- 3 user 4294967295 88 Jan 24 2008 SAMSUNG DVD RECORDER VOLUME

(no "executable" attribute on directory)

Group id for this folder is "-1", I believe that what problem is. I tried this DVD on Fedora 14 (Gnome), OpenSuse 11.0 (KDE3), RedHat 7.3 (Gnome) and KUbuntu 10.04 (KDE4) - the behavior is the same (except for "guid=-1", which can be "root" or "users"). I think that problem is in hal fdi profile or somewhere in automounter.

Below is the info for my laptop OS, the most up-to-date LTS, but still unable to work properly:
1) Ubuntu 2.6.32-28-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 19 21:21:01 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
2) Ubuntu 2.6.32-28.55-generic 2.6.32.27+drm33.12
3) dmesg outputs "UDF-fs INFO UDF: Mounting volume ''SAMSUNG DVD RECORDER VOLUME", timestamp 2008/01/24 03:58 (11a4)"

Ubuntu release: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
apt-cache policy hal: 0.5.14-0ubuntu6

.hal-mtab contents:
cat .hal-mtab
/dev/sr0 1000 0 udf nosuid,nodev,uid=1000 /media/SAMSUNG DVD RECORDER VOLUME

I expect to get this DVD behave like any other CD/DVDs -- any user can read it after automount.

audio cds in the same drive work fine for each user. It is only DVDs that will only work for root.

Andrew Bachmaga, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.
