    Question How to view/restore files in Trash on partition that mount on /opt

    I have partition and .Trash folder in the root of partition.

    My partition is mounted to /opt

    Trash folder is /opt/.Trash

    When I delete files/folders in /opt they placed in /opt/.Trash hierarchy

    In Nautilus Trash I cannot view files that was been deleted in /opt.

    I can only browse by directory hierarchy that was created in /opt/.Trash/1000/.... and view deleted files.

    Is there possible to view in my Trash (Nautilus) folder deleted files from all partitions?

    my fstab is:
    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
    #
    # Use 'vol_id --uuid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
    # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
    # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
    #
    # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
    proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
    # / was on /dev/sda2 during installation
    UUID=965977ea-b29f-4fa0-8de2-497e4261df42 / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
    # /home was on /dev/sda7 during installation
    UUID=268bfec2-85e0-4eb2-bae4-04498daf2e01 /home ext3 relatime 0 2
    # swap was on /dev/sda6 during installation

    Each partition has its own trash folder, and can be access using root privileges. Alt+F3 'gksudo nautilus' go to your partition and you have access. Please be careful now as you are in permanent root.

    press Alt+F2. Run Nautilus with root privileges. but when click on Trash icon in Places get Error message:
    The folder content can not be displayed.
    Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash":Operation not supported.


    What does it mean?
