Re: Trash not showing files
There is a patch for 2.6.12 kernels to include inotify support,
however, if i were you i'd simply get a 2.6.13 kernel and try that
instead.
At the same time, gamin in Debian is compiled without inotify support, defaulting to the (buggy) old dnotify+polling.
My guess is that Gamin is not talking to Nautilus properly therefore
Nautilus assumes the Trash is in whatever state Gamin tells it to be.
But this is just a guess. To be sure you could run Gamin in debug mode
and watch the logs (see the man pages or look for more in the mailing
list debian-gtk-gnome archives. Of course, you first need to be sure
that Gamin is actually running at all (see your process list with: ps
aux | grep ${USER}).
P.S. please always reply to the list, that way other people can be
benefit from these discussions. And i do read the list, so, there is no
need to include me in the message destination addresses.

I'm using gamin in Sid with Debian's 2.6.12
linux kernel.

In my case is shown always empty, even if there are files under ~/.Trash
before login. I've reached the conclusion that the culprit is encfs, but
I don't know the internals of gnome, so I don't know what makes the view
of the Trash special for nautilus. Going to ~/.Trash manually with
nautilus works as expected.
