I too have this issue. Using Ubuntu 8.10 with a Nikon D80. All thumbnails appear in vibrant colours but the image being displayed and any output are lacking in contrast and saturation. This is with either default settings or with Experimental Colour settings. I've not used RawStudio for months because of the need to tweak EVERY image.
