In academic interest you can look what LS_COLORS environment variable contain: $ echo $LS_COLORS After that you can look what's wrong with it. Fix is pretty easy: $ eval `dircolors` Read man pages for dircolors(1) and dir_colors(5) for most complete reference. Note that you should place command mentioned above to .bashrc (or .zshrc, or whatever your shell' config is) so it will run every time shell starts. -- Regards, Alexander Batischev -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
