Bug ID: 417157
Summary: Colord-kde not working on KDE Neon and Kubuntu
20.04LTS
Product: colord-kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: critical
Priority: NOR
Component: Systems Settings Module (KCM)
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Hi,
I ran various test on Ubuntu based KDE desktop (KDE Neon and Kubuntu 20.04LTS,
full install) to get an idea of the state of Plasma for artist/graphist; and it
looks like color-management is broken. On the bright side, the module still
appears on the Settings manager and all the GUI buttons still appears and are
clickable. What doesn't work more precisely is the core of the module:
- Calibrate a monitor and create a new ICC doesn't work: it launches the wizard
(a dialog similar to Gnome2/MATE/Cinnamon) and after replying to the
questions/options and pressing 'next' a couple of time to reach the final
button, it finally failed and wasn't able to identify the monitor.
- Load/Assign an existing ICC profile to a monitor wasn't working either: The
ICC are listed correctly as child of the monitor in the GUI tree, the checkbox
can be switched active/inactive to a target profile; but switching and applying
it has no consequences on the appearance on the color of the monitor. It also
doesn't launch anything at new start-up. (ICC profile created with DisplayCal,
ex DispCalGUI, a software who propose to copy the ICC after creation to
colord).
So, it feels the module is in a zombie mode; just a GUI without any possibility
to use it. It builds, appears on settings as something functional but offers no
functionalities. Does someone know how to repair it? That would be great!
