Description
The automatic image handling of a block with image module gallery view does work, but the lightbox displays the thumbnail size instead of the selected size.
Thank you for your attention.

I intentionnaly created a duplicate of :

because it was not short enough

According to Joachim, image module maintainer, this is not an image module bug, but a feature request for lightbox2.

#1
This is both image module and lightbox2 bug named as files.filename issue. See http://drupal.org/node/564690 or another:
If you installed Filefield paths module (and optionally with Pathauto module), then this modules with default settings remove the '.' from derivative images filename (eg. filename.thumbnail.jpg -> filenamethumbnail.jpg) upon images uploading or derivative images building.
Set this's modules to leave '.' characters in filenames and Lightbox to run again on Image module gallery pages.
(Lightbox auto_image_handling.js use RegExp to replace in gallery images src the 'image_node_sizes' words (.thumbnail, .preview etc.) to 'display_image_size' word , then put the result to image link href).

Ok I see
These are my upload paths settings :
file path
images/[vocab-raw]/[term-raw]/[image-derivative]
file name
[yyyy]_[mm]_[dd]_[title-raw]_[image-derivative].[filefield-extension-original]
What should I use instead ?
file name
[yyyy]_[mm]_[dd]_[title-raw].[image-derivative].[filefield-extension-original]
But then the original image will have 2 points (name..ext)
#3
I finally understood this. Here's the result for those who might be interested.
The automatic image handling relys effectively on the naming of the image derivatives. the dot is necessary.
The image derivatives are not automatically generated with image import. I understand they are generated on page load the first time they are needed. This automatic generation of the derivatives creates itself the correct syntax in the names.
Every image derivative is now correctly named (for example : 2009_09_06_mouvement.png -> 2009_09_06_mouvement.preview.png)
I use filefield path.
My upload paths settings are :
the file path :
images/[vocab-raw]/[term-raw]
the file name :
[yyyy]_[mm]_[dd]_[title-raw].[filefield-extension-original]
It works for both my displays in views : as well a "block" display as a "gallery page"
