I'm experiencing the same problem. I've tried cleaning out all configurations files, and reinstalling the nautilus packages.
Here's some info: Nautilus 2.16.1 File system: encfs over top of xfs I have a .Trash folder in my home directory I can write to the partition that I deleted the files/folders from. I'm not bypassing the trash, I can even drag and drop to a window open to trash://. The file/folder disappears from trash://, but it is in the .Trash folder. -- wastebasket no longer works - shows no files https://launchpad.net/bugs/50362 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
