pdf preview in nautilus


I like the preview feature of nautilus, but I have some folders with
a lot of pdfs and the preview just gets in the way there. Is there a way
to disable preview for everything, except for videos and images?

Yes, check the gconf-editor.

I don't remember where exactly this option is hidden - and it is well hidden, but it's just a matter of clicking some options in the gconf-editor.

That's where you also get rid of "Trash" icons on the destkop - just to mention it.

Su-Shee thanks, I've found it, and it worked great =))
Here is the path to the settings in gconf-editor, in case any one else need it
/desktop/gnome/thumbnailers/
