Hello Daniel and Team

I produced ICC-profiles both in windows10 and ubuntu 18.04 with an older
huey pro colorimeter. With Windows 10, everything seems to be working,
under ubuntu both of the profiles have a weird green channel, purpurish
reds are not available anymore. Unluckily, I cannot attach my produced
ICC-profiles, but all of them have a warning sign on the list where one can
select profiles. In Windows and with the huey software, the profiles seem
to work as both of my screens have the same color output. To me, it looks
like the "night mode" when I activate the selfmade profiles with ubuntu,
but maybe my colorimeters green sensor is not responding well with ubuntu?

Thanks for your help,
Michael
