:man_shrugging: I do use the controls of my monitor to manipulate the saturation

Hi, I have a built-in screen, a sollution?(laptop)

There is very little software that will do that. You can try vibrantLinux, but it says its for Nvidia. Its in the AUR, the command to build it is pamac build vibrantlinux .

Yes but no, it doesn’t help me, if you tell me that I have to use an nvidia card instead of amd, what’s the use?

Did you install it to see if it would work?

KDE Plasma Settings > Display and Monitor > Gamma
Can help, as it can handle changes per channel for red, green and blue. Set them at 1.1 and see if that works for you …

no I don’t know how it works, when I try to launch it the program doesn’t start

increasing gamma only makes the display lighter or darker, saturation does not change

Sorry it didnt work for you. This page may be helpful.

where am I supposed to change the saturation settings in the application?

This page may help.

does not work, I have changed several settings without success

Did you try to install vibrant-cli AUR (en) - vibrant from the AUR? if it works it seems simple to use from terminal as explained in the GitHub page GitHub - libvibrant/libvibrant: Adjust color vibrancy of X11 outputs

Useless it uses the x11 outputs and I am in wayland

At this point I think its a good idea to provide system info. Please provide the output of
inxi -v7azy
Also list all the applications you have tried, as well as searches to fix the problem.

I ain’t sure whether it’s changed, but colour management for wayland is a work in progress.

I have tried all the software mentioned in the conversation and my research was very focused on “linux screen saturation”, “how to configure screen saturation on linux”, “displaycal saturation”, “radeon software alternative screen saturation”…

There is not much solution apparently, so maybe use X11?

x) I don’t plan to use x11, it would be bad for the performance of my system

Try DisplayCAL - see what you might need to do:

I think it has some experimental support for wayland. Din’t test it.
