The intel driver on Fedora 14 seems to handle it correctly, which would suggest it's a nouveau bug rather than an xserver bug. Out of interest, how accurate is the colorspace information you get from the EDID normally? I know you do an auto-profile in oyranos and I wondered if typical monitors were accurate, or the EDIDs just get stuffed with some half-correct (semi-random) values by the vendors. Obviously DreamColor monitors are pretty accurate, but what about the bargain basement LCD panels and the non-name LCD screens used in typical notebooks? Thanks, Richard. _______________________________________________ xorg-devel@lists.x.org: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
