Just to be complete for anyone who finds this later while trying to solve the
same problem, that is actually:
konqueror | Settings | Configure Konqueror | File Associations | inode |
directory

I have (I thought) konqueror configured to show me the detailed listing of
directories. It mostly works, but if I hit the "up" arrow to go to a parent
directory, it suddenly switches to icons instead of the detailed list (even
if
I was in the parent before, in detailed list
view, and then went to a child
directory, and then hit "up").
How can I stop this from happening?

What's up Doc
Your mission, should you decide to accept it...
Ok go to konqueror, settings, file associations, inode, directory. Click on embedded and them move Detailed List View to
the top.
Amazing!!
How did anyone ever discover that?
I have been using KDE/TDE since 2001, with konqueror as my file manager in all
that time, and this was news to me (unless I knew long ago and completely
forgot it, which is, I have to admit, unfortunately, a possibility).
I personally use Tree View same thing but gives you
the ability to open
directories without having to click into them.
Do the above for both directory and system_directory
Hit apply, then ok, then close out all konq sessions and give it ago.
All seems to work. Perfect! Made my day :-)
Remember that, if you save a profile with icons or
another kind of it, it will
default to how you saved.
Yes, I sort-of-vaguely understand how profiles work. Although since all I ever
really use konqueror for is managing files, I generally don't have to mess
with them. But thank you for the reminder.

Fortunately, it failed to self-destruct, so I had time to read it a couple of
times :-) I even had time to tag it red in Thunderbird, in case I ever need to
look up how to do this.
