           Summary: Starcraft: Does not recognize CD when it is mounted
                    using fuseiso
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: brian.s.croom at gmail.com


(Note: I am aware that Starcraft can now be run without a CD, but I imagine
this issue affects other programs [though not all! see below] so I am
submitting it anyway)

When I loop-mount the Starcraft CD with the normal mount method (superuser
required!) everything works fine. However if I instead use fuseiso
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/fuseiso/) the game complains about missing
the CD. Both were tested being mounted to the same directory, and confirmed
that in each case the files on CD were accessible through the same "dosdevice".

Clues:
- The regularly mounted image appears as type "iso9660" in /etc/mtab, while
with fuseiso it is type "fuse.fuseiso"
- in the Wine file browser the regularly mounted image as type "CDFS", while
the fuseiso mount as type "NTFS"
- The Rosetta Stone language software is happy with images mounted either way.

It seems that (1) Starcraft does something (perhaps simply a sanity/security
check) with the disk beyond simply accessing the files, and (2) Wine does not
recognize fuseiso mounts as being CDs. Whether this because fuseiso doesn't
provide some feature/aspect of the iso9660 mount, or just because Wine is
checking for the iso9660 fs type, I don't know.
