I really can't understand how the default values can work on any normal terminal! :-)
Normal is black background. Don't believe me? Look at tty1 :)
On a white (well actually a very pale grey in my case, grey90 I think) background few of the bright colours work well at all so why does the default use them, surely most people use a light background nowadays.
What makes you think that most people use white background?
I don't think I want/need any of the file type colouring but colours for directories, symbolic links (especially broken ones) and a few other things might be useful.
I think there's some file that you can edit to change the colours, maybe in /etc somewhere.
Good luck,
