Trash has reached maximum size?

I'm on Kubuntu 11.04, and deleting in Krusader I get "Thrash has reached maximum size" even when I have 10M in ~/.local/share/Trash/files. So my question is why is that? How do I set the allowed size of the trash bin?


Easier still...

  • Open Dolphin
  • Select 'Control' from the top of the window
  • Select 'Configure Dolphin'
  • Select Wastbin
  • Un-check limit to maximum size
  • Select apply

And you don't even have to open a horrid terminal


Try Krusader Tools > Empty trash instead of empty trash button.

Removing trash metadata file works too - until you reach trash limit again - rm ~/.local/share/Trash/metadata
