On my system the DVD auto mounts and then tries to auto-play using Totem. I do not need to open it from the application, it is all automatic. (I then get a permission error, but that is different problem, with a different workaround.)
I also do not have any entries in /etc/fstab for the dvd/cdrom drives ( never mind floppy, what year is it ;-) ) The disks still mount using the magic of pmount, which should be standard on recent versions of Ubuntu. What happens if you comment out those fstab entries? On 6/29/07, R.
