[Bf-committers] Linux thumbnailer under nautilus 3/gnome 3

[Antony Riakiotakis]

Hi all, I had a problem with my linux thumbnailers when I changed to
ubuntu 12.10. It looks like ubuntu 12.10 uses gnome 3/nautilus 3 which
uses a slightly different thumbnailing system than the one we use in
blender:

I added a file named "blender.thumbnailer" under
usr/share/thumbnailers with the following contents and now everything
works as it should. I think not all MimeType entries are needed here
but I leave that to better linux hackers than me :)
