Got a small problem which is more of an inconvenience than anything else. I logged in today to find my Trash icon on my desktop (which is drawn by Nautilus) was no longer a trash icon. It's icon has changed to that of a plain text file the contents of which are
Code:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Trash
Type=X-nautilus-trash
URL=trash:
X-Nautilus-Icon=gnome-fs-trash-empty

which seems fine to me. I can no longer drop files on to it to be deleted. I can still access my trash by typing 'trash://' in the address bar in Nautilus. If I delete the file Nautilus just puts it back on my desktop when I login again. The file at the momet has permissions of 700 (ie only the user can rwx).

Any ideas what the problem is?

I've still got this irritation! Anyone with any ideas? All my other icons are fine it's just my Trash icon which is messed up. Changing to a different Icon theme does not help. Is there anyway to 'reset' the desktop icons??
