I simply had to run

Code:

unalias ls

and that did the trick.

You might have the problem, that the wrong alias definition is again there, if you restart your system, because it might be defined in a file, which will be read at system start or if you open a shell.

Yes, you're right. I did

Code:

grep --files-with-matches -e "alias ls=" ~/.bashrc ~/.bash_aliases ~/*profile /etc/*profile 2>/dev/null

and in .bashrc there are two aliases which I didn't create; one for du command and the one for ls command, deleting those will solve it for good?
