Deleting root’s trash

Time again I manage to delete the root trash but next time I’ve forgotten how to do it. So this time I’ll write it down.

open a root nautilus window with

gksu nautilus /root/.Trash/

now highlight the files you want to delete and then press Shift-delete.

Do not “move to trash” as they will just pop up again :-)
