Sometimes I happen to delete some files which I do not own when running the Gnome desktop. I go to empty my trashcan, and bam, I'm fucked. I am simply unable (impossible?!) to delete the files from graphical mode.
This is currently a big usability flaw with Gnome. Because the medicine is bringing up that virtual terminal. Then cd into
/home/username/.local/share/Trash/files
and issue the command
sudo rm -rf *
And all the sudden your trashcan should be empty once again. You can not keep shit in the trashcan for very long, or it will start to smell.
The free desktop is still a bit rough around the edges, aii?
