Title:
  "Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately?" on
  NTFS / VFAT partitions

Status in The "G" Library - GLib:
  New
Status in “glib2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Trying to delete files with nautilus from a vfat partition "fails".
  Well, the file can be deleted OK, but it seems gvfs can't send the
  file to the trashcan, so only permanent delete is available.
  Furthermore, the name of the file appears in little boxes, similar to
  viewing a chinese site using Latin-1 encoding (will attach
  screenshot).

  Distro: Hardy up to date (17-february 2008)

  Steps to reproduce: Copy a file to an vfat partition. Select it and delete using nautilus. A message error will appear: 
    "Can't move file to trashcan. Do you want to delete it inmediately?"
    "File <<little-boxes>>cannot be moved to trashcan"

  Versions:
  Nautilus 1:2.21.91-0ubuntu2
  gvfs 0.1.7-0ubuntu4

  /etc/fstab for the vfat partition:
  UUID=9445-A956  /fat32          vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
