nVidia graphics card and PoP! OS. My monitor has very inaccurate colors and I mitigate that on Windows with custom color profile + nVidia control panel tweaks to get better colors, gamma etc.; on PoP! I imported a custom color profile, but there’s only an nVidia X something and it doesn’t allow to change everything that I can change with control panel on Win. What’s a good substitute? I only need the color management from nVidia’s control panel (so RGB saturation, gamma and contrast), like in this picture

Thanks in advance

    The Nvidia X Server Settings is quite limited but im pretty sure that it can do color correction, but i noticed that on Pop OS the app needs some extra tinkering to get all the options to show up.

    Try running it from the terminal and see if any errors show up. I remember it threw some errors about keys or smth and because off that a lot of options would be missing (including color correction).

    a few years ago, when i had an nvidia card and tried the propietary driver, the nvidia settings application was also available for linux/X11. maybe it’s still available it was called “nvidia-settings”. maybe check if it’s still available.

        I guess, yeah, since I did try looking for it and that nVidia x was all I could find mentioned online!

      Thanks, I’ll look into it! I think I tried looking through the settings but didn’t find anything, guess I’ll double check! Hopefully I can find it and it sticks with fullscreen applications because I’m having this issue in-game, where the nights in Win look dark, while in POP! look almost like day
