GAMMApage - 0.5

A gamma-adjusting utility for your monitor. Written in Python using GTK and pyGTK. Able to adjust gamma on the fly and save settings to be used at each login (on a per-user basis. GAMMApage will only write to the user's home directory.)

There is also a "parallel" build called Monica without Python/GTK, using the diminutive FLTK toolkit, and is here.








Above is a shot of the main screen. Very much a no-nonsense layout, with a decent amount of free space and a mid-grey background. Comes off as looking a bit "old-school", but, hey -- it has a job to do.

The layout and functionality is much the same as its predecessor, Monica -- but the gamma-setting routines are more robust and user-friendly with GAMMApage. As an example, Slackware's inittab settings, rather unique, are taken into account. Also, much more specific information is given if any problems arise.

GP also is more helpful with preparation and troubleshooting due to the extended help, available via the "info" button. See the screen below:

  Dependencies for the source and Slackware distributions are:

GTK+2-2.6
Python-2.4
pyGTK-2.6
