There are also some other programs which cause the settings reset, but I don't know exactly which ones.Īnother way to reproduce the color reset problem is by turning on/off the color management setting in Settings > Devices. Reopening the Nvidia control panel reapplies my settings again.
It's just the settings that are applied to my desktop.
Also the color correction values in the Nvidia control panel aren't reset. Note that this only happens once so subsequent runs don't reset the settings. After this the color settings for my desktop is reset. The easiest way for me to reproduce this is by opening GNOME Help and playing a tutorial video. Is there a better way to deal with this issue or should I keep this as it is?Īlso another problem I'm facing is the fact that the color settings will reset after opening a certain program. usr/bin/nvidia-settings -load-config-only
