I can adjust the slider/give command /gamma....but my gamma doesn't change in game. I have purged udev/xorg of any default power management bs, no dice (don't worry I reinstalled ;) ). Installed newest X and Intel drivers from repos...still no. I compiled the newest drivers from Intel source, X ppa, and newest kernel to support, still no. I have temporarily added a parallel bash script to change xgamma on startup, but this can be buggy and sometimes when I quit the game I have to restart X....sometimes (rarely) I have to reboot altogether.
I thought this may be a driver-specific problem, i.e because I am running an (almost) bleeding edge craptop with integrated graphics right now (Intel 915GM ). But I have run other distros that I played AC in and had no trouble with gamma control on this comp..(slax, WindozeXp, FreeDOS via VM, Gentoo) But Suse, Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, Deb 5.0 ..(all Debian based except Suse...hmm), have all given me this trouble lately. I run everything pretty much bare minimum, 800x600, texreduce-1...etc..etc....( I get 60/65 fps with a little tweak here and there ;) ) I am kind of an amateur Linux geek, but this befuddles me :( . Any suggestions?
Besides the obvious "play on a different computer" lol.
