xubuntu color profile - xicc

Post by Rowland »

Hi Ivo. Is it possible to have ST pick up a colour profile set by xicc in xubuntu - I take it that ST picks up the system profile. Not sure?

$xicc /usr/share/color/icc/colord/sRGB.icc

is the command I use to point to the profile required. I'm trying to overcome the washed out appearance of my laptop monitor, as I currrently have no room for my large monitor.

Many thanks

Hi Rowland,

StarTools should respect whatever color profile you set for the X11 server to use.
I've always found color calibration on Linux problematic - would love to hear how you get on and which tools you use for the job!
