Package: gnome-volume-manager
Version: 1.4.0-4
Severity: normal

I recently burned a copy of the Fedore Core 5 DVD, and was surprised to 
find that gnome-volume-manager didn't automatically mount it like it 
does for other discs I insert.  The icon in the GNOME Disk Mounter 
applet didn't even change to indicate there was a disc in the drive.  
(Combined with the fact that "cdir" reports "no_disc" when the disc in 
the drive is a DVD, I thought it was a bad burn and burned another copy, 
which had the same problem.)

It turns out that the FC5 DVD's volume label is "FC/5 i386" -- it 
contains a frontslash character.  I suspect what happened is that g-v-m 
tried to create the mountpoint directory "/media/FC/5 i386", failed 
because "/media/FC" didn't already exist, and gave up on the whole 
process.

If I mount the disc manually it works fine.  If I create a directory 
called "/media/FC" it still doesn't auto-mount, though.  Its HAL UDI is 
"/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_label_FC/5_i386", so maybe that's 
causing problems too.
