Missing a recycle bin on your Ubunu Linux desktop? You can get it back in a minute. It’s easy. Press Alt + F2. Enter gconf-editor and press Enter. In the tree navigate to apps/nautilus/desktop.
Set the value of trash_icon_visible to true and save the changes. Congratulations! You should now have a recycle bin on your desktop.
