Hello,
Since the last update I did 3 or 4 days ago, the colors on my Garuda KDE looks all washed out and weird. I cannot describe it with a visual cue but I’ll tell you that it looks very much alike the difference between a cheap VA display and a quality IPS display.
I have searched about this issue but didn’t find any recent or past posts about it, hence created this topic.
I tried to see if I can change the color profile in System Settings but the devices list is empty and switching between profiles has not effect.
You can find the garuda-inxi
