Following the procedure in this forum post, seems to solve the issue. At least for me it does the trick. Del key works as expected (sending file to trashcan) when a file is selected, but in rename mode it deletes the text and not the file.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11075004&postcount=3 Any affected user can confirm this works? I think it could be either a bad default config, or some unity configuration conflicting whith gnome classic, as I'm quite sure I've never modified accelerator keys. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496789 Title: Nautilus rename mode is broken.
