This is a serious bug that prevents users from achieving a simple goal
for no apparent reason. It also lowers compatibility marks for Ubuntu. I
think this is a high-priority fix.

Yeah, I appear to be having this problem as well (but have no idea if
the CD was burnt on a Mac). Standard /etc/fstab entry, but CD mounts
with all files permissions 700, and with userid and group 501 and
dialout on all files. Very annoying.

Insert CD -- mounts with all file permissions
But is this really just a wishlist item? Surely this is a classic will
completely flummox a non-technical user type problem which goes against
the core Ubuntu philosophy. The *importance* is obviously related to the
proportion of CDs/DVDs that may have this problem (doesn't seem that
clear yet),
I'm definitely an experienced user, but this one definitely flummoxed me
for longer than I would like to admit. I would never have expected
something like this would happen, so it stumped me. It doesn't seem
logical that a read-only removable device would show up with permissions
like this.

I've been in contact with someone at macfixit.com about this. They
track MacOS bugs. They did some experiments and couldn't reproduce the
problem. Could someone else try to see if, for instance, the original
permissions of the files being burned are consistent with what's on the
disk and that
Note that I've submitted a complementary bug report to Apple. Don't
count on them fixing it, though -- you know how it is with the
proprietary vendors. So Ubuntu should take the high ground on this one.

I have also noticed this problem. Also with disks burned on the Mac.
I have noticed this problem on thumb drives with files written by the
Mac as well.
It seams that Ubuntu is respecting the permissions that Mac put on the
disk.
It might be a good idea to ignore permissions on all removable

Could you please upload your /etc/fstab file? Maybe when the cdrom is
mounted, it is mounted with the wrong permissions.
You can try to remount the cdrom with the correct permissions - check
the man page for mount for details.

There's nothing special in my /etc/fstab file. Here's the relevant
line:
/dev/hdd/media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
And in addition, other DVDs and CDs don't have this problem. Just that
one that I burned on a Mac.
So, basically, the Mac put the wrong permissions on
