Screen calibration

I'm using a T61p, and the screen has been giving me some slight headaches, and I'm wondering if there's a program I can download for Ubuntu to calibrate the colours with my Nvidia Settings. If there's an online guide, it's fine with me as well.

 

You can install the nvidia-settings package via Synaptic. It should allow you to apply brightness, colour, and gamma settings.

Thanks for the links, Bog and RAMBO29. I've attempted to tune it, but the problem is, I'm not sure if what I did was correct. The screen does look different, but is this 'different' a correct different? How can I confirm it?

 

What do you mean? You want the screen to look different, but according to your personal preference. I can't really help you here unless you're asking a question outside your preference.

 

I had to do the same thing when I installed Mandriva, though simply installing the drivers made the nVida settings available. Not sure about actually calibrating so that colors, etc, would be true and exact as a pro photographer would need, but I was able to adjust to my own liking. It also allowed for much nicer, crisper text which was what I wanted most.

 

I guess that's the best one can do, then.. Thanks all for your help.
