I am using a CIFS file system and as I noted in my first post, 
I had applied the steps listed in the README:

Q: I can't see any thumbnail images of the recordings on my CIFS/SMB share.
A: There is a bug in the Linux CIFS driver that is triggered by Apache when
    it uses 'sendfile' to send an image. To work around it, add the following
    line to your Apache configuration (httpd.conf) file...
        EnableSendfile Off

BTW: that's the default with Mandriva....
