Bug Description

Xubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) release - x86
minimal packages
noticed on multiple PCs

When going into "Desktop Settings" and selecting the Finder for "selecting background image" not all the images get a "preview" image in the right side.
I have a few background images (50+) and most are JPGs. Seemingly at random some will display a preview and some won't. All file perms (644) and ownership are the same for all files.

If you need more info, please provide direction as to what and/or where I should look.

Thanks.

Henrik

An update. This only happens if I haven't viewed the folder in Thunar. Once Thunar has generated the thumbnails then the "Desktop Background Selector" will as well. So, I'm guessing it isn't trying to create it's own thumbnails and just looking for a cache of the image?
