Eventually it should disappear to be replaced by an thumbnail picture that represents that particular file, or something more generic for the type of file. > Can somebody tell me why nautilus does not use each time the same > icon? When it makes a thumbnail, it stores the image inside ~/.thumbnails/. It usually does use the same image that it's previously created, but perhaps there's a reason why it recreates them (e.g. the file's apparently changed content). The thumbnails seem to be associated with the files with some sort of hash. I don't know if it's a hash just based on the original file content, or includes filenames and paths as part of the equation. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.26.5-45.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
