∶ You have got 'ls' aliased to '/bin/ls --8bit',

A good trick to know is using the "\" in front of a command will
over-ride an alias. For example, I alias "rm" to "rm -i" so that
it queries me when I delete something. Sometimes I know what I want
and I don't want to be queried for every file, especially when I
want to do an "rm *" in a directory which contains lots of files.
So, what you can do is:  "\rm *" and it skips any alias you might
have set up. So, to solve your "ls" problem (which I'm sure you've
already resolved...) use the following command:

    \ls
