problem with mount applet



Greetings to all,

when I try to mount the CDROM using the applet, I have a dialog saying :

drivemount command failed " mount /mnt/cdrom 2>&1" reported:
mount: must be superuser to use mount .

I know that mount is a root command but what is the use of this applet
if we cannot use it to mount discs !?!

Any help/clue/tip will be greatly appreciated

regards

GH Portefait

P.S:umount is fine thanks :)
