You are setting the variables before their package is loaded. (when
`ls-lisp' is loaded they get default values according to your OS).
Do something like this:
(defun my-dired-changes ()
"Set my preferences for dired"
(require 'ls-lisp)
(require 'dired-explore) ;I don't find these
(require 'dired-sort-menu) ;packages in 21.2
(setq ls-lisp-dirs-first t)
(setq ls-lisp-ignore-case t))
(add-hook 'dired-load-hook 'my-dired-changes)
That will load the packages after the `dired' is loaded and THEN set
the needed variables.
Ehud.
