I've also noticed this in both 10.04 Lucid and 10.10 Maverick. The root user HAS a trash folder (at /root/.local/share/Trash), with the info and files subfolders.
The problem is.. clicking trash at Nautilus (as root) gives the error "Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash": Operation not supported" as informed by the OP. So root user has a trash, the deleted files are there, but Nautilus can not access it. Root can not restore the files or clean the trash the same way a normal user can. Nautilus implementation of trash is broken for the root user. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494082 Title: no Trash folder for root user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/meta-gnome2/+bug/494082/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
