not just hdr stuff, it’s all color profiling. my old monitor is dark af with wayland because it’s not loading its color profile and i can’t adjust gamma or apply color profiles in settings or with colord like you can in x. i really need this to be able to switch to wayland.
I know this is probably not a solution to your problem, but maybe:
This protocol isn’t relevant for your compositor to apply an ICC profile. If you’re using KDE Plasma, you can just select it in the settings. I think Sway allows that now too. If you’re on Gnome, you’ll need to wait.
I may need to look into this, because the colours between my drawing tablet and main monitor are quite different.
If you’re on Plasma, setting the color profile to “built-in” might be all you need to make them reasonably match
i’m using kde on endeavouros. when using wayland the color profiles section in settings does nothing. you can go pick a profile and click ok but it just doesn’t load it. colord is the daemon that handles color profiles entirely and that’s what this is about.
No, colord does not handle color profiles on Wayland. You need to set the profile in the display settings.
If you have an ICC profile that doesn’t work, please make a bug report about it for KWin.
