Installing fglrx fixed my problem too, limits Visual Effect to 'None' by doing so, but who cares. Thanks for the work-around Carl! Don't know this post helps with the bug, except maybe that it confirms that the bug is with (or some how related to) the default Radeon driver. -- Radeon gamma

Same problem here on HD3650. Just to mention that it's not a cosmetic issue, Xorg display is really unusable, black text on white background is unreadable, text on button too, so you can't use the computer... -- Radeon gamma bug, display too bright when using VGA

I think I'm seeing this same problem on a Radeon HD3450. I have two identical monitors, both with VGA inputs. One is connected to the card's VGA output, and looks fine. The other is connected to the card's DVI output via an adapter, and looks washed out in the sense described by other

No, it does not qualify as serious in comparison with other X bugs. It sounds like more than a cosmetic issue, though, so setting to medium. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Summary changed: - Radeon gamma bug, display too bright + Radeon gamma

I've found something. My display has DVI and VGA inputs. I am using DVI-VGA adapter for ANALOG input for my monitor. The ANALOG input is too bright, like described above. If switch to DVI, then colors/brightness/gamma are fine. So the problem is with ANALOG output from VGA. I tried with

Me too. I agree that this issue should be considered serious. It 100% affects the usability of Ubuntu. I can (barely) cope with the issue for a short time, but it * IS * a deal-breaker if its not fixed in the Beta. I was also using 10.04 Alpha (1 or 2, don't recall), and I was NOT having this
