  1. I run DisplayCAL 3.2.2 + Argyllcms 1.9.2 on Arch Linux. When I ry to calibrate a monitor using Colorhug (firmware 1.2.3) I get the error:

    Error – new_disprd failed with ‘Instrument Access Failed’

    I tried the two USB 3.0 ports of my notebook. I get the same errors regardless of the USB port used.

    1. Check in menu Tools -> Instrument -> Install Argyll CMS instrument configuration files. If this menu item is grayed, the necessary files are already installed, though, so the problem then lies elsewhere.

  2. Having the same problem and i have tryed everything said on all this forums :/
