radosuafDue to soon demise of Windows 10 and my hatred towards Windows 11 I’m trying to switch to Linux. What sets me off however is the fact that my monitor is a wide gamut one and the reds just burn my eyes. I’ve been trying to find anything on sRGB clamp for Linux, but is seems that there are no solutions apart from full calibration…
Anybody managed to do this by software? I’m using an AMD Radeon card.
PCM2It should be possible, but is less straightforward than with Windows.
radosuafThis one is NVIDIA specific, unfortunately…
PCM2Ah yes, good point. Given that the only option I’m aware of on Windows on the AMD GPU side is the AMD driver clamp (or Windows ACM), I doubt it’s possible on Linux unfortunately.
radosuafHmmm… I’m using Ubuntu but decided to give Fedora KDE a try, I applied the ICC profile and it seems sRGB clamp was automatically applied! It didn’t happen even in Windows. Is it possible that ICC profile automatically assigns sRGB colour space?
PCM2That would reflect the behaviour of Windows in colour managed applications where sRGB is specified. It’s possible this occurs more widely on the Linux environment you’re using, but it’s really not something I’m familiar with.
radosuafGreat :). Now let’s just hope this stretches to 3D apps (i.e. games). Let me see…
