stay away from he priorities! Sorry, I thought not being able to delete stuff was pretty important. Do you want me to lower the severity too? the severity is your choice, the priority is ours. Alright, I understand how it works now and I won't mess with that in the future. Sorry about that. I have no idea what you did. Can you provide a very detailed how to reproduce? And also a strace of the kdeinit from root. Did you login as root or did you kdesu? OK, here's how I can reproduce it:
1. Alt + F2 for the run command dialog
2. I enter Konqueror for the command and in options make it run as root
3. I go to "Storage Media" and click on my ext3 partition Files A (also noted
as media:/hda5 and /data1)
4. I create a new folder.
5. I right click it and select move to trash or press delete on the keyboard
while it's selected and have the following error: "Creating folders is not
supported with protocol trash."
"And also a strace of the kdeinit from root. "
How do I do that?
I should also mention that the same error is produced when I log in as root into KDE and try this. But, I do not get this error in GNOME. GNOME actually deletes folders on the ext3 partition. In fact, it is even worse in GNOME since when I select "Move to trash" the folder just disappears and cannot be recovered, It is not moved into the trash (I looked and no files or folders were in it) it is simply deleted. It turns out that GNOME doesn't just delete files on the ext3 partition when I select "Move to Trash", it does this for any file I select, anywhere. (even in my home directory!) I would really prefer KDE's error to actual loss of data! :( I submitted this as a separate bug here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=113952 ok, the trash:/ author told me that I can't test this as /root is on the one partition I have. The root konqueror should create a kdeinit process. Do a strace -f -p <pid> with the pid of that kdeinit. BTW: did you try with both media:hda5 _and_ /data1 or just media URL? ok, we just reproduced it. It only happens with media:/ Yup, it's only with media. I also just tested it and if I delete a folder in /data1 it all works as it should. Sorry for not being more clear. Thank you for the tips and yes, I'm aware this is only a temporary workaround. I've got it now. fixed |
