Hi all!
I just found that after my latest updates to 14.0.10 I lost the "Delete"
funtionality in konqueror. When I do a right click on at file on a FAT32
usb thumbdrive, then the context menu pops up with the "Delete" entry
greyed out. Pressing "<DEL>"-key consequently des not delete the file
nor
move it to the thrashcan. Pressing "<shift>+<DEL>" deletes the
file.
Does somebody else see this, too?

I just upgraded a couple days ago, and I don't have that problem. Everything
works the same as before.
The problem, however, may reside in the flash drive itself, and the fat32
filesystem. I've had problems with both flash drives and SD cards: sometimes
they mount and behave normally, sometimes not. Do you have the delete
function when you are using Konqueror with non-fat drives, such as your hard drives?
You might dig up your konquerorrc file, where the delete function can be set
or unset. You might be able to override other changes by changing that file.

I need to use fat32 because I still have some itsinks clients (thankfully

Stock formatted usb and SD cards do exhibit problems like that in general.
That's why I always format them with linux before use. I never have a problem
after that.
NTFS, when I have to use that crap, sometimes will. HFS doesn't give me much
of a problem, less than NTFS more than fat32.
Try clean formatting the drives before use and make use you chown to your user
just in case.
