Adjust your LC_ALL, LC_COLLATE, and/or LANG environment variables. (At least, |
| 27 |
Nautilus /should/ respect those.) You might have to do something like: |
| 28 |
LC_ALL="POSIX" nautilus |
| 29 |
from a xterm-like application. You can use |
| 30 |
env | grep ^L |
| 31 |
from a new xterm-like seesion to see what nautilus "sees" by default. |
