I use ubuntu 12.04 and I can see in nautilus thumbnailers of ogg (with embedded artwork) and text files, just like in figure enter image description here It's a nice feature.

I have a slow machine and I've installed Arch with LXDE and pcmanfm. I would like the same thumbnailers, but I can only see a few of them like in the figure arch-pcmanfm I've installed nautilus, thunar, spacefm... and lots of different thumbnailers in my Arch machine, but I haven't be able to see the thumbnailers of text and ogg files.

I think that maybe ubuntu uses a patched nautilus version with extended capabilities or something like this. Any idea? Thanks.
