Please make sure the package dircolors is installed. Run dircolors to
generate a list of color aliases. pipe the output to a file and append
this to the end of your .bashrc.
eg:

export LS_COLORS= 'no=00:fi=00:di=01;34:ln=01;36:pi=40;33
:so=01;35:bd=40;33;01:cd=40;33;01:or=40;31;01:ex=01;32:*.tar=01;31
:*.tgz=01;31:*.arj=01;31:*.taz=01;31:*.lzh=01;31
:*.zip=01;31:*.z=01;31:*.Z=01;31:*.gz=01;31:*.deb=01;31
:*.jpg=01;35:*.gif=01;35 :*.bmp=01;35:*.ppm=01;35:*.tga=01;3
5:*.xbm=01;35:*.xpm=01;35:*.tif=01;35:*.mpg=01;37
:*.avi=01;37:*.gl=01;37:*.dl=01;37:';
