[SOLVED] Nautilus Thumbnails not working

Hi every one,
My Nautilus is not showing thumbnails for image, pdfs and videos but it shows three dots instead!
Here is the output of journalctl -xe :

nautilus[7714]: ../glib/gobject/gsignal.c:2423: signal 'can-accept-item' is invalid for instance '0x55d85a2381e0' of type 'NautilusCanvasViewContainer'

Re: [SOLVED] Nautilus Thumbnails not working

The guilty was FSTAB:

proc /proc proc nosuid,nodev,noexec,hidepid=2,gid=proc 0 0

After commenting the above entry in fstab, it worked!
Anyone else having the same issue, check your /etc/fstab for nosuid, nodev and noexec options because sometimes they may cause problems cool

Re: [SOLVED] Nautilus Thumbnails not working

I would rather say that the option that caused the problem was hidepid without setting up the rest of the system properly.

nosuid and noexec definitely should be there. Or, even better, the whole line should not be present in /etc/fstab without a good reason, letting systemd use its defaults.
