Forwarding this bug from Ubuntu reporter raido357: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/548709 [Problem] Several reporters confirm that the screen is too bright after upgrading from karmic. [Original Description] Ubuntu Lucid Lynx radeon driver has a bug, which causes gamma/contrast/brightness settings to be messed up. Too bright, text boxs disappear on forms, it's like sun shining directly on display. Just hard to see things. Menu bars or all melted to one, because of brightness. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1438810 Display is okay with Karmic Koala kernel 2.6.31-20. Using xgamma, to lower gamma makes it worse. My display has DVI and VGA inputs. I am using DVI->VGA adapter for ANALOG input for my monitor. The ANALOG input is too bright, like described above. If switch to DVI, then colors/brightness/gamma are fine. So the problem is with ANALOG output from VGA. I tried with different DVI->VGA converter, same issue - too bright display. I can't switch permanently to DVI, because I need DVI for other machine with HDMI->DVI adapter. To clarify the bug, I have added camera photos using identical manual settings of the screens from Lucid (radeon) and karmic (flgrx). Note that all images are of the same bootchart file. The images are as follows: 2149: Lucid with default settings (1.0) 2150: Lucid with xgamma set to .6 2151: Karmic with default settings (1.0) 2152: karmic with xgamma set to .6 Notice the loss of shading and detail in the Lucid shots easily seen on the init and collector rows. Although the bug may seem trivial it does affect the usability of Lucid a good deal. Please consider this a serious bug. For additional information I use a desktop pc with an xfx radeon hd 4770 and additional info can be seen in the bootchart photos. Another user with HD 4350 reports seeing the same behavior, also using a DVI-VGA adaptor. Another on RV100 says they see similar symptoms and are using the analog (d-sub) connector. A user on HD3450 sees the same, also with a DVI-VGA adapter.

This is an issue with the TV DAC BG/ADJ values. Can you attach a copy of the problematic video bioses and in the case of the RV100 and R420, the output of "radeontool regmatch TV_DAC_CNTL"?
This patch: http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=127052658905865&w=2 fixes the issues with R4xx cards. For the RV100 and other older cards, I'll need to see the vbios and value of tv_dac_cntl as requested.

for the rv100, what connectors does your card actually have? Also, can you attach your xorg log and dmesg output? Perhaps it's the primary dac that's causing problems. Can you get the output of: radeontool regmatch DAC_MACRO_CNTL
Created attachment 34715 [details] rv100_xorg_dmesg_vbios.tgz My video card has a single connector that looks to be a dual link DVI M1-DA.

Ok, I lied, I'm still responding. radeontool regset DAC_MACRO_CNTL 0x00000808 fixed my problem! It might look a little on the blue side, but that also could be just because I was so used to looking at it all washed out for so long that my eyes are playing tricks on me. HTML colors appear to be looking right, and html lightgray is no longer displaying as white.

I've verified that these two patches were already included in the kernel 2.6.32-17.26 this was reported against: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=6a8a2d702b33c6ed5c789f21b4e89fdf221f01ca http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=127052658905865&w=2 This patch was not present in that kernel, though: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=34718 Thanks, I'll forward this bug to our kernel team for further handling.
i have too that problem, motherboard Asus A2M-VM with X1250 ATI embedded . when i used VGA is too brigth, contrast is false. with Compiz i see small line when i move the cube.

(In reply to comment #28) i own a radeon HD3450 and a syncmaster 940 nw monitor using VGA connectors and have the same problem using Karmic Koala. i installed the Os using the safe graphic mode becouse in normal mode the display was corrupted and installation couldn't go on. after updating the fully installed OS i activated ATI proprietary drivers to enable visual effects on desktop but the display have always been too bright. i am trying to apply the patch but i truly don't know how to . . . btw in the drivers/gpu/drm/radeon folder i can find only a file named radeon.ko is this normal?
You need to install the kernel source or try a ppa with a newer or patched kernel.
I confirm that the patch in comment #17 fixes the gamma problem on my RV100: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=583845
(In reply to comment #33) .... ok, alex thanks a lot for your answer, even if i don't kow how to perform the actions that you suggested. i will give it a try tomorrow and post my results here asap. A.
(In reply to comment #35) Well i think i am managing it to get kernel 2.6.33.3 on my pc, let's see if i get it working..
(In reply to comment #36) running new kernel now, but still no enhancements. now i see i have a lot of entries in the hardware drivers tool and the proprietary ati drivers won't install anymore ?!?! is it normal?
(In reply to comment #37) > (In reply to comment #36) > running new kernel now, but still no enhancements. now i see i have a lot of > entries in the hardware drivers tool and the proprietary ati drivers won't > install anymore ?!?! is it normal? Are you saying you are still seeing the problem? Did you apply the patch in comment 28? The proprietary driver only works with a certain set of kernels.
(In reply to comment #38) yeah still experiencing the trouble and atm i am installing all the updates found after reboot. in a few mins i will try applying the patch, not sure about result couse this is the first patch i apply in my life, any hint would be appreciated. BTW i am following a how to apply patches found on LinuxHQ and adapting those procedures to my case. wish me good luck ^_^
Created attachment 35322 [details] patching results tried to patch but i get an error at line 28 or 29
(In reply to comment #40) an insane idea runs through my head: i opened atom.c and found the two sections of the code where the changes should go, what happens if i manually apply the patch modifying the file? i think that lines with a minus sign should be erased and lines with a plus should be inserted, is it right? is it dangerous? (of course it is è_é ) TY
if you are using a git tree: git am <patch> if not, you can manually apply with: patch -p1 -i <patch> Alternatively, you can apply by hand. the '-' lines are removed and the '+' lines are added.
(In reply to comment #42) thanks alex, manually added the differences between the files. i found that the atom.c was already patched except for the ", tmp;" of the first difference in both the chunks of code, anyway nothing happened and the colours on my display are still very bright. moreover with the new kernel there is no way to activate any driver for the videocard and everithing moves really slow. any other hint for me? willing to try anything. at worst i will wait for lucid lynx final release and update to it, might get things better isn't it?
(In reply to comment #43) just installed lucid lynx from a USB pendrive everything goes wonderfully but colours are still bright, do i have to apply the patch in LL?
(In reply to comment #44) checked out but atom.c still is not there, by searching the whole filesystem there is no sign of this file so patch cannot be applied.
You need to install the kernel source package. I don't know whether LL has this patch or not.
(In reply to comment #46) tried to sudo apt-get install kernel-sources but i get an error, translated from italian it says: "The package kernel-source doens't have available versions, but it is named by another package. This could mean that the package is missing, obsolete or it is only available inside another source."
(In reply to comment #46) installed kernel source from package manager, still having bright colors and missing atom.c ....
(In reply to comment #48) don't know if this is relevant: - even as root i can't obtain the rom of my video card with instruction posted before. - Atom.c does not appear anywhere in my system. - i did any previous step using proprietary drivers but even now that i uninstalled them there is nothing different. - radeontool instruction give always "mapping ctrl region" response. - avivotool regmatch 0x7ef4 and avivotool regmatch 0x7ff4 give segmentation fault error. looks like i got many strange things going on here !?!?

You need to run avivotool as root. radeontool isn't useful for your card.

(In reply to comment #51) well my pc got stuck and i dont know if it's becouse of something i did while trying to compile and install the new kernel, i reached the step where i had to make modules_install, and all was going just perfect. then i moved the bzimage in the boot directory and waited till this morning to edit the grub config file but as i woke up and turned on the pc: surprise! i will post as soon as i get my pc back to life! thanks alex for all your patience! thanks to everyone that posted here! see you soon!
(In reply to comment #52) well i'm back, don't know why but bios was upset with my usb keyboard, now i moved it to an external hub and everything's fine again. as of now i'm running this kernel: 2.6.32.11+drm33.2, and i applyed the patch to the atom.c file before compiling and installing the sources. but now the driver is set to the opensource ATI radeon instead of the fglrx, trying to install the wich fails always and resulting in no change in colours but no acceleration at all. i'm running out of hope...
(In reply to comment #53) back again. as i had no news since my last post maybe i was misunderstood. the problem is not solved and i still have very bright colours. is there anything else i can do? i will try once more reinstalling ubuntu, the kernel and the patch, but i doubt it will work... i'll give some feedback in a few days. Thanks!
Just curious.. How come this fix was not commited yet to the repository, and the bug closed? My understanding is that many users have confirmed that the fix is correct and does fix the problem, or am I missing something? [for me i can't confirm, i didn't test the patch but many others have]

Maybe this bug old/obsolete, but I recently got new Radeon HD 4350, and can confirm this bug. Display is too bright with gamma = 1, lowering gamma do not solve problem because window decorations become dark, red becomes tomato, buttons on forms in browser or other apps are white (using gtk theme 'Mist'). How I can fix this?
