On the same hardware I noticed that a CMYK photograph converted to sRGB loo=
ked=20
mostly the same (indistinguishable) on Linux, but the sRGB colours were=20
brighter on MSWindows.

I tried this by dual booting between MSWindows and Linux.

Then I tried it by running MSWindows within a VM on a Linux host and the=20
MSWindows showed a clear difference in brightness between the two formats.

=46inally, I checked on an AppleMac and the difference between the CMYK and=
 sRGB=20
photographs was even more prominent than MSWindows.

So, the Linux renedering seems to be misleading the user.  Have you noticed=
=20
the same?

BTW, both Linux machines that I tried this on are running radeon drivers - =
are=20
these to blame?  The AppleMac is running Intel graphics with its 'retina'=20
monitor.  Is it a matter of somehow tuning the Xorg settings on my Linux PC=
s?

=2D-=20

Mick
