Linux gamma problem
« on: June 27, 2010, 03:21:22 am »
Hey, I'm running Kubuntu 10.04 and recently reinstalled tremulous 1.1 and 1.2 and when I use the command /r_gamma nothing changes.

Did you try /set r_gamma
Did you try to change the brightness in the menu of the graphical interface?
If all else fails, you may change gamma of X by using the xgamma-command, which currently I myself do with a script that invokes Tremulous.
I have retired from Tremulous. Definetely. If you play a game just because it has become a habit, but u'r only feeling like a kindergarten teacher - well, maybe I am just getting too old (hell, I was a teenager when DukeNukem3D was *new*) - it's probably not a bad idea to just let it be. And I do.

Don't take this personally. Have fun, guys.

Rather than using xgamma, I'd recommend using /r_overbrightbits and turning it up until the game looks right.

Are you sure you have all of your latest drivers installed?
