Doesn't /have/ to be, but you can't look at files until you have access
to them and to the directories in which they reside. For your own
files, there's no problem. For root's files or for those of other
users, you'll get this message. I believe that Trash belongs to root.
So yes, you need to use sudo (or change to superuser by typing *su* and
inserting the root password, which I personally prefer) in order to see
everything.
cheers,
