I have had this problem as well running ubuntu 8.10, evo 2.24.3 I found a quick fix:
Open trash folder Select all Right click and select "Mark as read" Empty trash. It worked for me but I have no idea as to why! -- Emptying Trash Fails with 'Error while expunging folder' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/287811 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
