This should be fixed in evince 2.30 which is shipped with Ubuntu Lucid.

[Bug 298072] Re: No thumbnails for some file types on network shares
Upgraded to Jaunty yesterday. The problem is still there. As before, copying a file from the Samba share to the local computer creates the thumbnail fine. Copying a file with thumbnail in the Samba share keeps the thumb. Anyway, it seems that evince-thumbnailer isn't started when browsing a Samba share. How do I run it manually ? I guess the input is the file to create a thumbnail for but what is the output ?

the recent comment suggests that the evince thumbnailer is called but failed to create the image, could you try on jaunty and try calling the thumbnailer manually if that's still an issue there? ** Package changed: nautilus (Ubuntu) = evince (Ubuntu) -- No thumbnails for some file types on network shares https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298072 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 298072] Re: No thumbnails for some file types on network shares
I'm also having this problem, so I can try to add an example/screenshot and some more info. In the screenshot, item #1 is the example file in a VNC window of the server itself, item #2 is the same file in a Nautilus window on the client, and item #3 is the result of dragging the file from the Nautilus window to the client desktop. Some other relevant info: 1) This example file was created on the server, but the problem also occurs when files created elsewhere are copied to the server. 2) Files created on the client then copied over work fine. Also, if I were to copy the example file on the client desktop back to the network share, the thumbnail information would persist. 3) Nautilus is definitely trying to generate thumbnails. It will take a while to process folders with large amounts of files and everything will work properly except PDF/CBR files (as far as I've seen). 4) My server is running OpenSolaris 2008.11 and sharing through Samba via ZFS. Client is Linux Mint 6.0 with Nautilus 2.24.1. Problem is reproducible with Ubuntu Intrepid live CD. Thumbnails work fine with Windows Vista client. ** Attachment added: Screenshot of Problem http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21588557/screen.png -- No thumbnails for some file types on network shares https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298072 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It doesn't work better with a new user (just created, so he has default configuration).

[Bug 298072] Re: No thumbnails for some file types on network shares
What kind of example ? A screenshot ? The problem is quite simple : on a local drive, if I go in a folder containing PDF files, thumbnails are generated. With video files, thumbnails are generated. On a remote drive (either Samba or mounted as SFTP), a folder containing video files generates thumbnails but a folder with PDF files doesn't generate thumbnails for them. While browsing a folder with a lot of video files, I saw there was a process running with thumbnail in its name (I don't remember and can't check now : was like gnome-video-thumbnailer or something). I could'nt check the process running when generating thumbnails for other filetypes but I guess the problem might not be related to nautilus itself but rather to a specific thumbnailer (used for documents like PDF, CBZ or CBR) that doesn't support network access. That's just a theory, I'll check this when my server works again and I have access to my usual remote folders. -- No thumbnails for some file types on network shares https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298072 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 298072] Re: No thumbnails for some file types on network shares
Ok. So it seems to be a problem on my system. I'll check my setup to see if I can narrow the problem (the only thing that leaps to my mind is that my files are on an external USB hard drive connected to the remote computer, but I don't see why it would be treated differently than the internal hard drive). -- No thumbnails for some file types on network shares https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298072 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 298072] Re: No thumbnails for some file types on network shares
Well, reproducible doesn't really apply there. As for specific steps, it just happens, there are no specific steps apart from sharing a folder that contains PDF or CB archives (CBR / CBZ...). It seems like Nautilus can't generate a thumbnail for some file types from the network. It works well with videos and pictures. Is it the same process that creates thumbnails for all file types in Nautilus ? or filetype-specific (i.e. maybe videos are generated by gstreamer, pictures by another process and so on) ? -- No thumbnails for some file types on network shares https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298072 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
