I found this site very useful. It appears that though we ship the same display calibration SW that he uses, it does not show up in the menu. It does not seem to have a *desktop file. From the above link it appears that the GUI opens on it's own when an appropriate device is connected to the system. I was unable to find any other packages that do this. There are two packages that take the info from above and set the display (xcalib and xicc), but it appears what we have does that already. As such, I will mark the following items (which all seem to be the same thing) in the blueprint as done unless someone can point me to other SW (in our repo) that does the same thing better: [ubuntustudio-dev] - color - consider replacing argyl with another application (ttoine wanted this): TODO [ubuntustudio-dev] - color - explore what vanilla ubuntu is using because gui is nice (ttoine again): TODO [ubuntustudio-dev] - color - gui would be nice for users (ttoine again): TODO I would also like to see us use his workflow as a good example in docs or make our own similar but with tools we ship. It seems to be well laid out and is done from the view of someone who has used win/mac tools in the "standard" industry workflow. The blue print item: [ubuntustudio-dev] - color - explore making a package for adobe icc (yep, i guessed it...ttoine): TODO Is sort of related. I would suggest not. The reasoning is that we do not ship (we being ubuntu overall) the adobe pdf viewer even though it is free and has more functionality. (I had to download the adobe version to use some of our government forms that have fill in blanks) We do already ship a set of icc profiles that ubuntu does support. The second point is that someone serious would create there own profile anyway for their own monitor using the tools above with a colorimeter. If I have no comments I will also move this item to done. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
