The only time I had a similar problem was when using KDE's superuser file manager to get rid of some /var/cache/apt/archive files. The default option in the right click context menu showed. Move to Wastebin Delete Using this option does not delete the trash, but creates a hidden file in /root/.local/share/trash , and puts all the stuff you think you've trashed in there, and is why my / partition was still showing full. The solution with the superuser file manager was to go to Settings/Configure-Konqueror/Behaviour , check the box "Delete", which will then be added to the right click context menu. Nigel.
