Hi,

I’m running a linux laptop here with opensuse 42.3 and KDE Plasma

When, and only when, I’m using two monitors at the same time (the one from my laptop and the external one connected to my HDMI) and the external one is set as primary DisplayCal detects my displays name inverted. That is, if I choose my external one in Display&Instrument tab and apply/reset a profile on it, the display affected is the one from my laptop. And vice-versa.

The problem also happens on my system startup loading profiles on login.

The problem does not happn when I start DisplayCal as root.

The problem does not happn when using single monitors (either the one from my laptop or the external one).

The problem does not happn when using both monitors at the same time but my laptop’s is set as primary.

  2. There have been recent changes in ArgyllCMS 2.0 related to enumeration of ICC profile X atoms that are not yet reflected in the last stable DisplayCAL release. If you checkout the HEAD from trunk (no need to compile anything, just run DisplayCAL.pyw from source), and re-install the profiles to the correct displays, does it fix the wrong device to profile mapping?

  3. Hi Florian,

    Thank you very much for the tip. It didn’t work, but I switched back to argyllcms 1.9.2 and the problem seems to be solved 🙂

    1. Have you also used the profiler loader of the trunk version? I.e. another installed profile loader entry may still point to the older stable version.
