================================================================
3/4. Expected and Desired results
I expect my colour settings to be preserved and loaded between reboots/logins. While they are saved, they are not automatically loaded. Have to run nvidia-settings manually after login to load them.
================================================================
My own comments:
I run Ubuntu 20.04, with the latest updates as of today. Clean install.
I have changed some settings in nvidia-settings (the gui panel - see image) and changed the color settings, so that the brightness and contrast is lower on all channels. These settings are saved to a nvidia-settings-rc file in my home directory.
I noticed that there already is a startup script running this (/etc/xdg/autostart/nvidia-settings-autostart.desktop), buuuuuut it does NOT apply these settings upon login after gdm(3).
To fix it I changed a line from:
Exec=sh -c '/usr/bin/nvidia-settings --load-config-only'
To:
Exec=sh -c 'sleep 5 && /usr/bin/nvidia-settings --load-config-only'
Now my settings are applied upon logging in (albeit after 5 seconds).
I have tried other solutions suggested in forums such as running "nvidia-settings --load-config-only" in xinitrc and Xsession, as well as gdm3/PostLogin. They did not work, and I think that there simply needs to be some sleep/timeout time before loading the settings. Why? I don't know. |
