Next problem: color mode presets don’t allow tweaking RGB gains on my monitor, however there is a hidden factory calibration menu which allows to set RGB gains for all color mode presets.I was lucky that people already contributed a bunch of those profiles to this database for my screen-colormode combination. Those profiles are not only specific for the screen but also to the selected display color mode. With those user-created profiles you’re even able to get a decent calibration with colorimeters. However Displa圜al allows correction profiles, which are made using spectrophotometers. I didn’t know that my colorimeter (spyder 5) is not very suitable to calibrate wide-gamut screens, spectrophotometers are better suited.My biggest mistake was, that I was using the custom mode, as this one allows adjusting RGB gains to set a decent white point before calibration starts (“Interactive display adjustment”).and others like cold / warm / gaming etc.Custom (highly discouraged profile as it does some really nasty mappings).Adobe RGB (clips gamut at Adobe RGB boundaries).

Standard (uses the full wide-gamut capabilities).

The monitor offers several color presets:.

I finally managed to get a decent display profile with Displa圜al, it took me some hours of reading several forums to understand why my Dell U2410 wide-gamut monitor is kind of special and needs additional steps to get a decent calibration. So I really don’t know why it sometimes works and sometimes not.īut coming back to my overall display calibration issues: I didn’t use Displa圜al to set the display profile, I always use the gnome-control-center color dialog.Īnd I even noticed that Displa圜al is smart enough to detect that there is an active display profile set and immediately disables it once the calibration started. I’ll try another time by turning color management off during calibration. So I think it is always a good idea to revert back your current display color profile to a neutral / automatic one, or turn it off completely before starting calibration runs. My expectation would be that my starting point would be the same as in the previous run.Ĭan anybody explain what is going on here?Įdit: after I reverted the current display color profile to the one I had selected before the 1st run I got the same result in this “interactive display adjustment” dialog. What the heck is going on here? Now the green gain is way to high and I need to correct it in the monitor settings again, and at the same time pull up the red and blue gains. And when I apply the new display color profile and start another calibration run I end up with this starting point: Just as a demonstration of what already struggled with when having the “Interactive display adjustment" turned on: in my previous calibration run I made sure to balance out the colors as Displa圜al asked me to, using my monitor controls. Is there also a general problem with wayland? Did anybody get it working with wayland, or do I have to switch back to xorg?

Only when I go back to Displa圜al to install the profile for all users, darktable-cmstest is able to discover the profile: XWAYLAND1 the X atom and colord returned different profiles Using darktable-cmstest I always get an empty output: XWAYLAND1 the X atom and colord returned the same profile Sorry for the stupid question, but should “Interactive display adjustment” be turned on or off now? I however will try to reproduce what suggested tomorrow. So according to the key is getting a valid icc profile out of Displa圜al?īut it seems that the used version of Argyll CMS (2.1.2) is an issue, although I didn’t encounter any error during the calibration process.

I even calibrated my screen with the latest version of Displa圜al based on python3 and a Spyder 5 since upgrading ubuntu 22.04. Wow, this explains why my colors are messed up since upgrading from ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04…
