Comment: This could be the same underlying bug as the ones referenced above, but the behaviour I am describing is slightly different (I think). it at least provides different error msgs. I see this behaviour in up-to-date Dapper (as of 27 mar 06). My Trash is a symlink in my home directory which leads to a FAT partition. If I have a file on my desktop, select it, and then press the "Delete" key, I get the "not on the same filesystem" error. The secondary aspect of this is that it gives options to Retry or Cancel. Selecting Retry doesn't actually do anything other than give the same error message again. Note that if I select the file on the desktop with the mouse and drag and drop it into the Trash, everything works fine. It seems oddly inconsistent that I can delete by drag-and-drop, but not by selecting/pressing delete. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
