thanks mate! you pointed me in the direction of the correct config file!!

to anyone else with the same question:

you need to edit /etc/DIR_COLORS and /etc/DIR_COLORS.xterm . i guessed this from looking at /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh .

there are complete instructions in /etc/DIR_COLORS and /etc/DIR_COLORS.xterm on how to get the colours you want.

cheers for help all

btw, white = dirty grey
