Bug Description

I recently notice thas every forder (and related files) that normaly compose the linux (ubuntu) system are displayed on the Trash only under the icon access in Gnome WM.

If I look trought a console in .Trash folder, there is nothing, even in root or user login.

I don't know what to do, and I don't want to "destroy" my system after delete all these files. I think it's a Gnome WM bug only.

(sorry for my ugly english, I hope somebody understand what I try to explain)

Version of Gnome : 2.17.92.

For information, the new release of Gnome did not change anything. :)

i had a similar problem (reported bug #85608) and i've found a solution : rename ".gnome/gnome-vfs/.trash_entry_cache" and restart session, that solved my problem.

Hope this will be hopefull for u.
