Sorry to bother you guys yet again
I run Pure64 10.1 with fluxbox and xfe file manager on my laptop. Thumbnails are enabled in xfe (there is a checkmark under Panel -> Thumbnails). However, there are no thumbnails. I'm specifically interested in seeing thumbnails of image files (e.g., jpeg files). Alas, I have no idea what backend xfe uses to create/request thumbnails.
What I've tried:
1. I tried loading several extensions that contain "thumbnailer" somewhere in file names (totem.tcz, gdk-pixbuf2.tcz, librsvg.tcz, libgsf.tcz), but it made no difference.
2. Arch Linux wiki says tumbler is required (see
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_manager_functionality#Thumbnail_previews), but I tested xfe in Devuan and thumbnails show up even though tumbler is not installed. I'd try tumbler in TCL but cannot find it in the Pure64 repository.
3. I've contacted the xfe developer, but have not heard back.
Any ideas how to enable the image file thumbnails in xfe?
