I had something similar happen. I lost all my mime-type info. Are your other files showing the same in Nautilus? What I had to do on my box is re-install every package that was related to mime-type information. I don't remember what CD's you would need, I did it with synaptic. --andy On Mon, 2004-08-09 at 16:20, Barry Yu wrote: > For unknow reason Trash icon on desktop became a blank paper instead of > trash bin, > and when I right clicked select property, I can't see the "Select > Custom Icon" nor any thing can > lead me to icon recovery, need help and tks. >
