try

        man dircolors

:)

once you know WHAT to look for, the battle is half over. :)

        $ dircolors -b > ~/.bash.dircolors.rc
        $ edit !$
        <massage as you see fit>
        $ source !$

and to have it "take" permanently for future logins,

        $ edit ~/.bash_profile
        <have ~/.bash_profile "source ~/.bash.dircolors.rc">

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #125 from Colin Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
:
Ever wondered about confirming WHICH CPU, KERNEL OR DEBIAN
VERSION YOU HAVE?  It's easy:
        cat /proc/cpuinfo
There's lots of other neat stuff under /proc, too.
(You guessed it -- "man proc" will tell you more.)
For kernel and Debian data, try
        uname -a
        cat /etc/debian_version
