<p>I stupidly deleted my home folder in Natty. It's still in the trash but I cant get there to undo. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Searching I couldn't find any solutions because I don't think anybody else did that yet. I can only use the command line at this stage, and I'm noob at that. </p>
