Hello,
I've got Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop and recently I deleted a pretty big file. Its size was 7 GB. It wasn't in a trash bin. The file was physically in my Downloads folder. So I thought that it had disappeared from the system altogether after the deletion. BUT... Couple of things...
a) In GParted I still saw that my /home partition usage was big enough, like I included that big file;
b) When I tried a backup of my /home partition, I saw that file in some mysterious .trash directory.
That all was yesterday. Today after I turned on my computer, the file actually did disappear (Thanks God!) and everything got back to normal. And I couldn't even find that strange .Trash folder anywhere in my /home partition.
