Comment 14 for bug 152312

Following an upgrade from Feisty on Kubuntu, the display now appears too washed out such that "greyed-out" text is invisible in most colour schemes (the text in this window is only just visible!). No amount of adjustment of the monitor controls will bring the display back to it's former state under Feisty. Altering the gamma setting in /etc/X11/x.org.conf or via xgamma to a value of about 0.4 - 0.5 will improve matters slightly but this was not required in previous releases.

I installed the "ubuntu-desktop" meta package and got the same results under GDM/Gnome desktop.

Hardware is a Asus Pundit-R with onboard ATI Radeon 9100 IGP

x.org driver is "ati"
