You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Ubuntu 10.10 (not 10.4) blocks all my windows CD's from running under
wine as they are not marked as executable files. I cannot change the
permissions because they are on CD's and hence Read Only. I cannot (and
do not want to ) make a copy of all the CD's I use rarely onto my hard
drive and run from there - and in any case some of the CD's are
protected to prevent this.

Is there a fix that I can't see or am I going to have to rollback to
10.4 which lacked this amazingly crass feature (why no override
possibility on block?)
