Public bug reported:
Hi,
I'm using Feisty, with 2.6.20.16 kernel.
Without any obvious reasons, my trash applet shows files that really
shouldn't be there:
Few days ago, I emptied my trash bin through the trash applet. Before I
noticed anything, 230Go of data were lost. That was the content, and
only the content, of my external hard disk.
I then reinstalled Feisty, only keeping my /home. It went fine for 24
hours or so.
Today the same thing happened. I just put my cursor over the trash
applet, and notice a huge amount of files. But this time, my WHOLE
system is in there. So I tried to open the trash applet but it wouldn't,
and I noticed that Nautilus was freezed. ("killall nautilus" didn't
help).
So I rebooted.
If I have a look at the ./trash from my /home or another partition,
there's nothing more in there that what should be, it looks fine, and I
can empty it normally.
Here is my post on Ubuntu forum:

And another video that might help:

Thanks,
Alex.
ps: first bug report, I guess you noticed.
