Color calibration

, , , ,

Last year i wrote a post about Monitor color calibration on Linux. Now i recognized on my Dell Vostro 1700 system that the display is to lighten and that red is missing a bit.
At GetDeb i found GAMMApage which works great but didn't solve my problems in detail.
I found a good solution in installing the package "nvidia-settings" and configuring my display via "System > System settings > Nvidia X Server Settings > X Server Display Configuration > X Server Color Correction" in front of a brilliant and colorfull monitor. To get the color correction at system start i added at "System > Preferences > Sessions" the entry:
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings -l

Using the Gnome Desktop you can add this in System > Preferences > Sessions as an autostart smile
