Hello everyone, surprisingly I'M ALSO SUFFERING THIS BUG !!
LR use to ask me if I wanted to delete a photo from the disk or just from the catalog when I hit the delete button, I'm doing it exactly in the same view that I use to, Library > loop etc.. same all, no joy.... basically the delete choice is the menu Edit is greyed out, also Cut, Copy and Paste are.
I'm on local, not network drive...
I'm running LR 2.4 in a PowerBook G4 on Mac OS X 10.5.7.
I would be very interested to know how to fix this BUG, as it's costing me time and money having to go to the folders and delete my rejected pics manually !! that sucks....
Also tried from Menu > Photo > Delete Rejected Photos/Delete Photo and same all, not joy... the pics disappear from the collection/catalog.. but they are still in the folders....
I also tried to reset all warning dialogs in the Preferences > General, thinking that I was missing the menu or that I could have tick the box to "stop bothering me with the bloody message ! " but not ! ... there was not change, Lr will not let me delete the pics from the Disk.....
After all this time using the appl i have to say that is the only flaw that I have come across with, and it's a shame to do so...
If anybody find a solution please let me know, however the developers from Adobe should start looking at this blogs !!!!!!!!!!
Good luck to ye all

I'll go a step further, as one who managed software testers for a living... this is what one would called a straightline bug, should be in the build verification tests for the product.
for me, unfortunately ctrl-alt-shift-del doesn't work either, though it does bring up a different dialog box which says "Trash the ## selected photo files? This operation is not undoable. Files selected in this way will be removed to the Recycle Bin in Explorer. They will be removed from Lightroom."
No dice with either method.
1. I have LR 2.4 (64-bit) running on Windows 7. While the latter could be related, all the posts on this forum make me think it's not.
2. I've run in both normal and adminstrator modes.
3. files and parent folders are NOT read-only.
4. files are on local disk only.
Incidentally, ctrl-alt-shift-del should not be required. When the button on a dialog box says "delete from disk", it should function just as written, not require an obscure feature (thanks Matt for finding that) buried deep in the doc. the diff is not clear to the user.
Smaller issue, I actually first found this topic in forums while trying to figure out why "Photo-->Delete Rejected Photos..." was grayed out. I gather it's an internal reason (e.g. app has decide what to show after the delete), but why not permit me to delete photos from a collection view.
All that said, rest of this app rocks! but this straightline of a bug bugs me. I have to use explorer now to clean out files, but I can find a way with keywords, e.g. use the windows photo viewer after keywording files as "to delete".

I"m having a similar problem. After marking images to delete with "x", I go to photo/delete rejected photos and get the message asking if I wish to delete from disk. After saying yes, I get the message that "8 photos could not be moved to the recycle bin" I've tried this several times, in Library/grid mode. The recycle bin is empty. The images are on a remote hard drive. If I go to the drive and delete the image, and then return to LR, I do get the ? on the image showing it was deleted, and I can then delete it from the LR catalog. But this is VERY tedious.
Lightroom 3.1, Windows Vista 64 bit. Hope someone can advise!
