Hi,
 
I have no experience on dual screen, but following I have read on this:
http://www.darktable.org/2013/05/display-color-management-in-darktable/
 
Which says colord will take care on dual screen setups.
Are you using colord?
 
If your are using nvidia binary driver dual screen setup is not working:
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/colord/faq.html#nvidia-driver
 
Home of colord: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/colord/
 
I am using a colorhug and agryll but still have some colorshifts. For an ordinary user like me it is a tricky thing.
 
All the best,
Christian

Betreff: Re: [Darktable-users] darktable doesn't seem to use the right ICC profile
Any answer about this?
I'm completely stuck at the moment: I'd realized for some time that my pictures look quite different outside dt, but now I  know where the problem is and don't want to go on producing 'wrong' pictures.
 
Thanks for helping.

Thanks for your answer.
Here are the results of the ls -l command for both profiles:
 - for the 23" screen:
-rw-rw-r--. 1 marie-noelle marie-noelle 21880 19 août  18:31 /home/marie-noelle/.local/share/icc/W2361 2013-08-19 2.2 MQ-HQ 3xCurve+MTX.icc
 
 - and for the laptop screen:
-rw-rw-r--. 1 marie-noelle marie-noelle 21560 19 août  19:09 /home/marie-noelle/.local/share/icc/133AT17-T06 2013-08-19 2.2 MQ-HQ 3xCurve+MTX.icc
 
So based on their respective sizes, my guess is darktable uses the laptop and that is the wrong one.
How can I change it to the other one?

In case of colord the control message will tell you the filename it loaded,
however the xatom only has the binary data so all we can tell about it is its
size in bytes. What you could do is check (with ls -l) if the profile you have
set in your system is 21560 bytes big. If that is not the case then some other
profile was used. If it is the case however then either you are not using the
system default profile in the output color module, or you have some modules
activated that alter the image. Of course there is also the slight chance that
you have stumbled over a bug, but that's least likely.

Having two screens it could also be that the system assigned the wrong profile
to the according xatom. But all of this is just speculation. Please compare
the file size of the display profile with the size reported by darktable and
report back.
