It is an "alias" set up in /etc/profile.d/colorls.[c]sh . The easiest
way to stop it, system-wide, is to remove those files. Or, in your
~/.bashrc, you can try to determine if you are on the HMC console and,
if so, issue the command "unalias ls". Or do so at the command prompt.
I think that the ~/.bashrc would need something like:
if [ x$TERM = x -o $TERM = DUMB ]; then
unalias ls
fi
Double check what $TERM is set to on the HMC console, because I don't
know. Test for that instead of for "DUMB" in the "if" above.
