Bug Description
The default color for directories using ls in Hardy is dark blue on a black background. I would prefer a lighter color as default. You can work around it by tweaking the system but whoever chose blue as default isn't using a terminal a lot I think.
How I worked around it
# login
dircolors -b > .dir_colors
# vi .dir_colors
# Change the 34 in "di=01;34" to 33 to get yellow as default e.g.

Hi Sven,
thanks for taking the time to report this issue!
In your report, are you speaking of the console? Or are you using a terminal program under X/Gnome/KDE?
