CentOS - Nov 2010 - Recycle Bin disappeared (GNOME, CentOS 5.5, 32 bit)

Probably this is due to operator error, The Recycle Bin in GNOME
disappeared, for this CentOS 5.5 (32 bit) Desktop PC. The box is fully
updated.

Is there a command I can use, or another procedure, to get the Recycle
Bin in GNOME working again?

The .trash folder is there.

Incredibly rare that I use the KDE Desktop, but it is also installed
on this box and the Trash folder (like the Recycle Bin on GNOME) is
working perfectly, so this seems to be something I've done to GNOME.

How did you make it disappear? Revert the change. :-)

It is possible that it is there but not visible on the desktop.
Install gconf-editor (yum install gconf-editor) and run it. Then, go
to apps -> nautilus -> desktop. Make sure trash_icon_visible is
checked.

Well, I need to remember to look at the .trash folder once in awhile
and empty it.   Not sure what I did to create this  issue.
Thanks to each of you who replied and for your ideas and suggestions!
