I can run lcms_profiler_beta_3.exe in wine but for using it's monitor calibration I don't think this will work. After all what am I calibrating when I do this? Will the results be valid for my Linux desktop or only for applications running under wine? In addition for monitors this package does only calibration, has no interface for a spectrometer or any way to input spectrometer data and does not generate a monitor profile. And then in Windows I don't even know what it does with the data that was generated during calibration. Does it use AdobeGamma or does it install it's own utility to update the LUT? How would I use this in Linux to update the LUT? I think using Windows based profilers are fine if you are profiling scanners, cameras and printers for Linux as long as you do all of the image IO in Linux using the same drivers and setting that you will be using normally. I have done this for my printer and my scanner using Profile Prism with good results. http://www.itp.tu-graz.ac.at/Comp/RPM/LByName.html has binary RPMs but no source. I have found a number of other sites that also have RPMs but no source code. I did find the source code at http://www.littlecms.com/profilers.htm and I have just built it and it is working as far as I can tell. So it is on the LCMS site it is just hidden away. I just generated a monitor profile using course profile option and all default values with lprof and when I used xcalib to try to set the LUT using that profile my display went all blue. So there is clearly a problem with the vcgt-tag being generated by lprof. Anyone else tried this? Is it just me or are others seeing this? -- Hal V.
