Same problem here (partly)! I'm on a desktop with Samsung SyncMaster P2250 Monitor and on an older laptop with fresh precise 12.04 installed.
The laptop is showing the picture as expected. The desktop has the problem. 1) Only seen with eog. All of gimp, firefox, and shotwell show the picture as expected. Is eog special with respect to color management? 2) System Settings->Color show on the laptop: Uncalibrated as status on the desktop: No calibration status Is the (newer) SyncMaster based system expecting color profile calibration or even add-on profiles, as Tayroni Alves (tayroni-alves) suggests in this thread? And then which and from where? For the time being, I use shotwell, start to read Color Management Docu and wait for a brave sole to post a solution here ;-) Note: same problem reported in (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/931174 ) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to eog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/938751 Title: jpeg images are washed out or colors are skewed Status in “eog” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Not all images are affected but enough are.
