This is a big step forward.  Thanks for your good work.  

In the past I have played around with the gamma settings on my Linux 
box and have found that I can not set the gamma on my second monitor 
with xgamma or with any of the GUI gamma tools available (Kgamma and 
others).  I have tried S 0 and S 1 and only the primary monitor is 
changed.  I have noticed that your tool only seems to control the 
primary monitor just like the xgamma.  I don't know if this is a 
Xserver bug or a problem with my video drivers or a limitation for my 
video hardware (G450 Matrox) or a bug in xgamma and xcalib.  Is anyone 
able to set gamma on their second monitor or able to get xcalib to 
work on a second monitor?  Or am I doing something wrong?  How do I 
use your tool (any tool?) to set the calibration or gamma for my 
second monitor?  

I have tried the following:

xcalib -d :0 -s 1 -c gamma_2_2.icc
xcalib -d :0 -s 0 -c gamma_2_2.icc
xgamma -s 1 -rgamma 1.5 -ggamma 1.5 -bgamma 1.5
xgamma -s 0 -rgamma 1.5 -ggamma 1.5 -bgamma 1.5

All of these will change the primary display when S 0 is used and will 
do nothing when S 1 is used.  Values other than 0 and 1 return an 
error message from the xserver.  I am running XFree86 4.3.99 with the 
2.6.5 kernel and KDE 3.3.  So is it me or does everyone have this same 
problem?

Thanks,

Hal
