I've experienced the same issue and also Alexander Jones' fix works for me too.
A workaround based on savagex post wrote on 2008-06-05 consisits on openning "System>Preferences>Sessions" and on "Startup Programs" tab add an entry like "Name: Trash applet starter; Command: /usr/lib/gnome- applets/trashapplet". Now without Alex's fix also the trash bin applet becomes visible after next session login. -- trash icon disappears in panel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211604 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
