Hi
I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 and if I insert a 16GB SDK card in a USB port via an adaptor it states on the wastebacket icon on the bottom right of the destop task bar "No items in the Deleted Items folder".
However, if I click the icon and the Wastebasket file browser opens then I see numerous folders that I previously sent to the wastebasket from the sdk card.
If I now click the "Empty Deleted Items" button or select an individual folder for deletion I get the following error dialog box:
"Error while deleting"
Clicking on the "Show more details" it reads:
"Error removing file: Read-only file system"
Right clicking on a selected folder and going to Properties|Permissions, the Owner (Me) folder access permissions are set to "Create and delete files".
Thus, I am totally baffled as to why I am unable to flush the wastebasket and why the wastebasket thinks it's empty when in fact it is not.
Is this a bug or is it me?
Cheers for any help.
