I have discovered something new: I load a .jpg on the desktop and change from 0664 to e.g. 0777, then the preview image is created immediately, as far as I know.
But now I go to /home/USERNAME/.cache/thumbnails and delete all folders (fail and large). Now I click on the desktop with the right mouse button “Arrange” and the thumbnail is gone again and in the /home/USERNAME/.cache/thumbnails is again the fail folder and there is no new thumbnail of the .jpg, although the right is still on 0777. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2086516 Title: gnome-thumbnail-factory can't create new thumbnails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-desktop3/+bug/2086516/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
