What kernel version you are running (uname -a)? Are you sure this CD is
being mounted as a Joliet CD? The log messages from the mount will tell
you.
What is more likely is that the CD is poorly encoded. Most CDs are created
with multiple filename encodings. A single CD may have the original 8.3
encoding, RockRidge, and Joliet. On Win95, it will use the Joliet encoding.
The default on Linux is to use the RockRidge encoding if it is present.
You can force Linux to not use RockRidge by using the norock mount option.
Similarly, you can force Linux to not use Joliet by using the nojoliet
mount option.
If the CD is really being mounted as Joliet and you are still seeing
the trailing periods, send me a partial dump of your CD with
dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=1024 count=2048 | gzip -c -f > cddata.gz
