Re: KGamma and Plasma
Dne 9.4.2015 v 16:29 David Edmundson napsal(a): A while back I ported kgamma to KF5, which is in a branch somewhere. It's currently being released with applications, which doesn't really make sense as it's a KCM. As far as I can tell the main author is inactive. We have two options: - move kgamma to kde/workspace for Plasma 5.4 - merge the code into plasma-desktop with the other kcms I'm torn as on one hand I don't like having a lot of repos for tiny things on the other gamma adjustment really isn't an essential thing, and I like having a core -> extra stuff split. It seems a month ago Lukas ported colord-kde, as I understand it these two do basically the same thing but with competing implementations. So maybe there's a 3rd option of going with that. The main author on that also seems to have been inactive in that repo for a long time. Thoughts? David Well kcmcolord does a slightly different (more complete in a way) thing and, unlike the kwin color correction, works independently from the window manager. Having said that, I'd like to see colord-kde moved into plasma-desktop, together with other kcms and kgamma possibly too, to act as a fallback to it. -- Lukáš Tinkl ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel

I wouldn't call it competing implementation, just a different scale. colord gives better results than kgamma if it works, if not kgamma is better than nothing. Given that it would be awesome if we could figure out whether colord is properly supported and then show colord, otherwise kgamma. Does that sound possible? Anyway I'd say both are candidates for plasma-desktop. Oh and yes there is the 3rd way which is hooked up with KWin's color correction. But that is such a weird setup that I still haven't succeeded with setting it up at all.

KGamma and Plasma
