While this is fixed, you may want to try my solution: go to the Configuration Editor and check the options /desktop/gnome/interface/can_change_accels /apps/nautilus/preferences/enable_delete
Now you can change the key accelerator for any menu entry in Gnome and you have a *real* delete menu entry in Nautilus. After that, go to Nautilus and change the accelerator for "Delete" and "Move to Trash". Set <Delete> for "Delete" and <Shift>+<Delete> for "Move to Trash". This way, pressing the <Delete> key will really delete the item instead of moving it to the Trashcan. I find this useful for removable drives, specially. The ".Trash-1000" directory is annoying and in fact it's a very bad idea for newbies, who find their pendrives full when there are no files present... -- No way to disable trash in nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118988 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
