Where is Trash Bin in Ubuntu 11.10 with Gnome Shell?

Question

I am using Ubuntu 11.10 with Gnome Classic shell. How can I open Trash Bin?

Have a look at this - it has instructions on how to add the trash bin (wastebasket) to the classic panel. http://askubuntu.com/questions/58172/how-to-revert-to-gnome-classic — fossfreedom, Dec 10 '11 at 16:09
@MartinThoma Seems to be unchanged in Gnome3, at least on my Debian 8 machine. — Adrian Ratnapala, Feb 29 '16 at 09:47

Open a folder (any folder). In the sidebar, you'll see an entry for the trash. That's it.

You can also add a trash icon to the top panel with this extension: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/48/trash/ – Tom Brossman Dec 10 '11 at 17:31

sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool

Install that. Go to Applications > Other > Advanced

You can put a trash can and change your font.

Just install the gnome-tweak-tool, start it via Alt-F2 and you can add the Trash icon (and others) to your desktop.
