Darrell,

  I still did not know what this 2 trash can thing was all about. Before install
removed R14 (completely - deleting any stray configs in /opt and deleting any
remaining dirs in /opt. Additionally, I delete ~/.trinity and deleted
/var/tmp/*. So there was no shread of R14 around when I installed 3513 (I even
deleted ~/.config/menus.

  My only thought on this one particular box is that it also had enlightenment
(E17) installed which uses another similar trash setup. In ~/.local/share/Trash
I have:

|storage_serial_ST3500630AS_6QG351C5_1.desktop ->
/home/david/.e/e/fileman/favorites/|storage_serial_ST3500630AS_6QG351C5_1.desktop
|storage_serial_ST3500630AS_6QG351C5_8.desktop ->
/home/david/.e/e/fileman/favorites/|storage_serial_ST3500630AS_6QG351C5_8.desktop

  Which explains the separate trash.....

  Note: If it has been a while since you looked at enlightenment (E17) as a
desktop -- it is really, really been improved and it is rocket fast. It also
preloads kde configs on desktop start giving you seamless access to your tde apps :)
