There are multiple issues with such .exe files; some of them I was able to resolve in attached modified version of gnome-exe-thumbnailer.sh.
Problem: There are some icons in the file, but none of them is 32x32 or smaller. Example: OcsLogon.exe (from OCS Inventory NG) Solution: Use 48x48 resized to 24x24 (resizing to 50% leads to acceptable results). Problem: There is no sane version number in the version number resource. Example: XviD-1.0.3-20122004.exe Solution: Just fix my stupid mistake. :) Problem: icotool reports "compressed image data not supported". Example: peazip-3.2.1.WINDOWS.exe Possible solution: Use patched icoutils (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511944); yet to be done. Please, put the downloaded script in /usr/bin as root and run "nautilus -q; rm -r ~/.thumbnails; sleep 1; nautilus" as a normal user and let me know about the results. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #511944 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511944 ** Attachment added: "gnome-exe-thumbnailer.sh" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-exe-thumbnailer/+bug/622220/+attachment/1605791/+files/gnome-exe-thumbnailer.sh -- some .exe files do not show icon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/622220 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
