So... you're talking about the colors used by "ls", yes? If you don't want ls colors at all, you can use "ls --color=never". You can set that up as an alias/function. If you DO want colors, just not the ones you're currently getting, then you need to look at the LS_COLORS environment variable. According to ls(1), you're supposed to use dircolors(1) to generate this variable. According to dircolors(1), you're supposed to run "dircolors --print-database" and read its output to learn how to set it up. Looks pretty tedious. Have fun.
