Sunday, 06/01/2008 Paul Sherman Patch by Philip Heuer: This patch fixes several compilation issues with gcc v4.3. Two additional include statements were required, and the exit() calls needed to be changed to __builtin_exit(). This patch also fixes several deprecation warnings. 2005/09/09 Paul Sherman accounted for Slackware's inittab value of 4 for graphical logon. Here is an extended changelog: Stuck in a global string to take command for xgamma, in case ATI's prop. driver is present. Redesigned the color section of Monica, hoping to make color tweaking easier. The old "ramps" just didn't lend themselves to fine adjustments :) I also put in lots of extended tooltips and updated the "info" to include a brief, but I feel useful, How To. I made buttons on the end of the slider adjusters with which to fine-tune the gamma. They move in increments of .01. Tweaked the scaling of the widgets, resizing what is useful (the sliders) but not all the rest. Other controls merely stretch out or reposition like before. The color patches I tested as carefully as I could. If anyone finds any discrepencies, please let me know. The "Black Point" has an inset of 7%... which would fit into a 15-step ramp. Not terribly precise, but I thought it was the best compromise, knowing many folks who need monitor calibration do so because their monitor is losing some punch, and most of us have to put up with more glare and smearing, etc. than is optimal. I know my monitor is fairly good, but I had trouble seeing 5% during the day. So if I erred a bit, it was on the side of caution. If you cannot see the 7% patch in the black square, even when the ambient light is low, then leave the brightness up and just go from there. Maybe save up for a new monitor :)
