Despite jwhite's kernel fix, http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=... I find I have to use 'norock' on some discs, e.g. Macromedia Studio 8, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9467 Microsoft Dynamics GP demo, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8178 ... and the stupid DKNY perfume promo DVD-ROM that came in the newspaper today.
Running it with Wine yields... a black screen, as the flash player can't get at its data.
Mounting the DKNY disc with -o unhide or -o norock lets it work fine with wine.
Here's what one sees without either flag: $ ls /media/cdrom/ -l total 3668 dr-xr-xr-x 2 4294967295 4294967295 40 2007-07-24 15:54 AUDIO_TS -r-xr-xr-x 1 4294967295 4294967295 2144972 2007-07-17 20:18 DKNYDeliciousNight -r-xr-xr-x 1 4294967295 4294967295 1602372 2007-07-17 20:18 DKNYDeliciousNight.exe -r-xr-xr-x 1 4294967295 4294967295 1616 2007-02-14 06:34 Readme.txt dr--r--r-- 3 4294967295 4294967295 560 2007-07-24 15:54 VIDEO_TS

Here's what one sees with unhide:

(The VIDEO_TS directory is not searchable, but the app works anyway. )
norock is similar, but VIDEO_TS is searchable.
Given that these poorly mastered discs are turning up periodically -- widely distributed -- it seems like it might be time for another kernel change, or at least some userland kludge that does a remount.
The heuristic I imagine is: If the top level directory has any subdirectories that are completely nonsearchable or nonreadable, remount with unhide.

Dan, can you just quick check the file system type? If it's UDF, then it's a known issue. I basically need to do my patch again, but for the UDF file system.
My original work was just for ISO9660; I failed to realize that DVDs had their own format :-(.
This is on my todo list, but it hasn't moved for 10 or 12 months. It'd be a relatively straightforward job if someone else wanted to do it. (The hard part isn't writing the patch; the hard part is getting it committed).
Cheers,
Jeremy

I think it's iso9660, but you can check yourself, I uploaded it to http://kegel.com/wine/dknydelicious.iso It's 281MB. (And I think it's two years old, not fresh, but it's one of those free discs they insert in magazines.) - Dan
