Description pqr 2011-04-01 08:23:06 UTC 
Hello, 

Nouveau driver (0.0.16.git20110323.1614-1.1, OpenSuse 11.4, KDE) fully ignores gamma and brightness settings in KDE Display settings and xrandr --gamma.

My video is:
# lspci:
06:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 285] (rev a1)

kernel: 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop

Thanks.

When setting up the gamma one should use xrandr --gamma (or the DE's equivalent)
Note tools based on xgamma will not work

The issue is related to the kernel used - 2.6.38 should work perfectly, whereas 2.6.39 will not
