Gamma keeps reseting to 1.00 (KGamma)

I am in X set the gamma to .40, iy resets mainly after reboot, why?

X and Wayland reload defaults on reboot unless your settings are stored in a permanent config.

An alternative would be to set your active monitors gamma after your reboot:

xrandr --output "$(xrandr --listmonitors | awk '/\*/{print $NF}')" --gamma 0.40:0.40:0.40

Save that and rename it set-gamma-0.4

chmod +x set-gamma-0.4

Now move that somewhere in your $PATH

mv set-gamma-0.4 ~/.local/bin

System Settings

:play_button: Startup and Shutdown :play_button: Autostart :play_button: Add Script :play_button: select by navigating to ~/.local/bin and find set-gamma-0.4

Thabks, wjen will we beable to set gamma & contrast in Wayland?
