VCDs have no filesystem, and are therefore unmountable. You should still be able to view the contents with a media player. I use mplayer, and I select Open/PlayVCD...

In the Preferences menu there is a tab for video output drivers. My setup shows five choices. Perhaps yours is similar and will work with a different choice. If not, I don't think I can help you on this one. Maybe start another thread for this problem.
