Public bug reported:

The Jaunty generic kernel was recently upgraded from 2.6.28-11
to 2.6.28-13 during updates.

The Deleted Items folder visible in the original kernel is no longer
present in the new kernel. 
So when an unwanted object, say a document, is removed to 
"Deleted Items", it in effect disappears from plain view.
It can eventually be traced to the location trash:///  or otherwise 
called "Wastebasket", which again is not visible.

As an inexperienced Linux user,  I find this change confusing
and frankly unnecessary. 

Further, according to the Jaunty Help Manual: 
Ubuntu Server Guide
    Moving a File or Folder to Trash
Working with Hardware Devices
    empty your trash by right-clicking the trash icon on the bottom panel and 
selecting ....

is misleading for the netbook Acer Aspire One A110, which does not have 
either a visible trashcan symbol or a bottom panel on the desktop.
Could the Ubuntu bug team please look into these anomalies
on the newer kernel and attempt to rationalize for better usability.

Lastly I note on the Acer, inserting an SD card in the right hand side slot, 
doesn't mount the device. maybe something to do with pciehp needs forcing ?   
Many thanks, Rodney.
