Re: Trash not showing files
You didn't say what version of Nautilus you are using... Is it the
version in Sarge? What kernel are you using? what version of FAM/Gamin?
Is your kernel compield with inotify support and you are using Gamin on
Sarge?
In my case I have a 2.6.13 kernel which includes inotify (disables
dnotify by default) and I took the sources from unstable for Gamin,
modified the configure line in debian/rules to --disable-dnotify
--enable-inotify. Compiled, installed, and I have been the happiest man
alive since. No more crappy events like the ones you described. In
fact, I can simply do:
# with trash full showing
1. open terminal
2. rm -fr ~/.Trash/*
# trash icon shows as empty on my desktop
3. touch ~/.Trash/test
# trash icon is full again
Etc... Always works for all directories.
In fact, I'm so happy with inotify that I'm planning on writing a minor
extension to Nautilus that's going to make it even better! Of course, i
won't say it here... somebody might steal my idea ;-)
In any case, if you are using FAM+Nautilus on Sarge, you might be seeing some weird problem ...
