Regardless, you all pointed me in the right direction and I was able to locate the LS color section in /etc/bash.bashrc. I changed the following:
if test "${LS_COLORS+empty}" = "${LS_COLORS:+empty}" ; then LS_OPTIONS=--color=tty <--- (CHANGED TTY TO NONE)
That did the trick. I suppose I should follow Patrick's suggestion and copy the entire LS section to bash.bashrc.local so I won't lose my changes in an update.
This seems less volatile than creating an empty LS_Colors file and losing all those other colors for another user.
These are exactly the two reasons why I prefer a .dir_colors file: it's in your home directory, and even if you reinstall from scratch the setting persists as long as you keep /home. And it is specific to a single user.

Lutz, Okay, I tried your method after backing out everything I did earlier. I do like your method and it is nice and easy and definitely not volatile. Except that this isn't global. If I su, then the colors come back on me. Any suggestions on how to make this global? Useful on a machine that only I use but might have multiple profiles for various reasons. Thanks again for your suggestion. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
