Anyone have experience with color calibration on linux? Specifically with gnome?
The gnome docs suggest a pantone huey is the best supported and cheapest option. I can find them on ebay for less than $20. Will I regret not going with a more expensive option?

@[email protected] that’s exactly what I got and for whatever reason I didn’t get it to work with the GNOME color calibration… but I found an app on Flathub that worked (once I found its very hidden exported color profile and manually applied it in GNOME Settings).
Could be a quirk of Fedora Silverblue, but my impression is that the user-facing color profile stuff is… not well maintained.
@[email protected] My husband has become super involved in Linux color management and calibration recently. He’s not on Mastodon but I asked if he’d write something up, and he did!
@[email protected] Thank you! This is helpful! As with most of my hobbies, I didn’t realize the complexity of the waters I’d waded into :)
@[email protected] no, not at all. They are fine!
@[email protected] Great to hear! They’ll work for an LCD laptop display?
@[email protected] yes, I’ve seen that working.
@[email protected] last time I checked best option for color calibration was unfortunately x.org (ping @[email protected] )
@movation @[email protected] Hey, I have a Pantone Huey Pro here (since 2011 or around) but for a reason, it works only if I connect it behind a USB1 old hub.
I use since the last three years a X-Rite Colormunki I got for cheap (because of software driver obsolescence on recent Mac OS, many Apple user were selling them). I prefer the ColorMunki on my two. I still calibrate with argyllCMS on X11, KDE Plasma on Debian 12. I’m curious how is the GNOME/Wayland situation nowadays.https://www.davidrevoy.com/data/images/blog/2024/debian-kde/2024-05-30_05_displaycal.jpg
