Bug Description
Scenario: 10.04 on i7 up to date
Preproblem:
nonroot user creates files on /dev/shm and later deletes them via Nautilus.
Problem:
Neither nonroot nor root can successfully Go Trash in Nautilus.
Popup: "The folder could not be displayed. Sorry could not display all the contents of "Trash". Operation not supported.
Circumvention:
From the command line, can "sudo rm -r /dev/shm/.Trash-0" in order to free up the space.
To post a comment you must log in.
The issue seems resolved in the current version, when deleting some content from /dev/shm nautilus only propose to directly delete the item without using the trash
