I'd like to know if it's possible to configure `ls' to list files
using colors. I use ksh as default shell. I have also noticed that
when logged in the X server, when I open a xterm and do `su root' my
ksh doesn't read my profile. Reading OpenBSD's FAQ I've found the
following configuration:

$ echo "XTerm*loginShell: true" >> ~/.Xdefaults

But it didn't work either.

This is for login shells spawned by xterm itself. When using su, the
root shell is, well, spawned by su. Use ``su - root'' to get a login
shell in this case.
