[opensuse-kde] Trashcan Plasmoid Not Working Properly
I'm running KDE 4.1.1 on OpenSUSE 11.0. I've actually had this problem for a little while now but it never really bothered me enough to bring it up. I have the trashcan widget on my desktop. If I click on it to try to open it, an error window opens with a message saying: Malformed URL trash:/ The widget seems to work properly for other users. Anyone have any ideas where I should look for my problem?? Thanks, Rick -- Rick's Law: What cannot be imagined will be accomplished by a fool.

Sorry for the bump. Anyone have any ideas? Rick -- Rick's Law: What cannot be imagined will be accomplished by a fool.

Not really.. Can you access the trash via the "Places" panel in Dolphin, or alternatively by pressing ctrl+L -> enter 'trash:/' in Dolphin location bar. Does the trashcan widget work for a different user on the same system? Maybe have a look at ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc or maybe try moving that file to see if it'll work with a new config - (note that you have to move/rename it while not in a kde4 session). Works for me - so it's almost certainly an issue with your settings or your installation. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

To answer your questions: Yes, I can access the trash via the "Places panel in Dolphin and by entering "trash:/" in the Dolphin location bar. The trashcan widget DOES work for different users on the same system. After logging out of X, I logged in on tty1, and renamed my plasma-appletsrc file so I, essentially, had no plasma-appletsrc file. I then logged into X. I put the trashcan widget on my desktop but still got the same error as before. So, I am still at a complete loss. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated.
