Hi there, Can you install the relevant debuginfo packages, connect to libreoffice and get some backtraces: 't a a bt' in gdb. I suspect the thumbnailing piece myself, we do some call there that in theory is magic (and all that) but it's some synchronous magic and I'm suspicious of it. Looking forward to the trace. Thanks ! :-) Michael. -- michael.meeks@suse.com <><, Pseudo Engineer, itinerant idiot
