Description Jeff Rollin 2011-10-24 16:59:15 UTC
Version:           1.6.1 (using KDE 4.6.5) 
OS:                Linux

When browsing files and folders, an option should exist to view items in the traditional "Unix"/"ASCII" sort order, so that for example "Desktop" comes before "bin" (case-sensitive). It should be possible to set this as the default.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Viewing files in Dolphin

Actual Results:  
Current versions of Dolphin sort files in "lexicographical" order, so that "bin" appears before "Desktop". 

Expected Results:  
When browsing files and folders, an option should exist to view items in the traditional "Unix"/"ASCII" sort order, so that for example "Desktop" comes before "bin" (case-sensitive). It should be possible to set this as the default.

Jeff: Is this a duplicate of bug 148550?
Comment 2 Peter Penz 2011-11-03 14:27:02 UTC
The ASCII-sortorder can be enabled in "Dolphin Preferences" -> "General" by disabling the checkbox "[x] Natural sorting of items".

But as Andre noted already bug 148550 needs to be resolved too as Dolphin currently supports no option to enable case-sensitive sorting -> I've set it as duplicate for 148550 now.
