Version: (using KDE 4.3.4) OS: Linux Installed from: Fedora RPMs When KDE first loads the customized gamma setting is not applied (The original setting is). If I go to System Settings > Display > Gamma the custom gamma setting is applied (As soon as I select gamma in the left hand pane). So I don't have to recustomize the gamme setting or click the apply button in the lower right hand corner. KDE sets the right gamma setting as soon as gamma is selected.
same problem here KDE 4.3.5, opensuse 11.2
The same problem here. KDE 4.4.3 on OpenSuSE 11.2
Probably dupe of this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268174
RunetMember: I'd say it's the other way, this bug report is much older. However it really seems like a duplicate. anyway if you didn't check the mentioned bug, you should do so, there is some workaround mentioned.

In kubuntu 12.10, (on AMD 4000 series Integrated GP ) KGamma changes when changed in system setting but automatically restores to default(1.00) on restart. As there is no ATI control center, With out gamma and brightness control, system is not usable on LED screen. I seems that the BUGs 268174 is the same . but the problem persists. KDE need better and separate Gamma and other display property controls for videos and normal usage.
Sir its painful because of the problem "KGamma changes when changed in system setting but automatically restores to default(1.00) on restart" . Switched to Linux Mint kde 13 Maya LTS where ati control center is working(it kept the changed setting after restart) but now the ati driver was removed becuse of operating system crashes. But Kgamma's bug persists even after a long period. so KDE is unusable in LED screen. please help.
Note : The problem is there in Linux MINT 13 Maya LTS kde also.
This annoying bug is there in the new Kubuntu 13.10 also. KGamma makes the KDE unusable. On restart Gamma revert to the default value or changed kgamma value is not saved/ lost on shutdown. (my system uses AMD 890 chipset with AMD 4000 series Integrated GP )KDE is unusable in LED screen. please help.
For kubuntu /debian do i need to open a new bug.
This bug is present in kubuntu 14.04.

Git commit abb774fa60709102cc86daeef035cc8d59a9ef09 by Wolfgang Bauer. Committed on 24/06/2014 at 10:54. Pushed by wbauer into branch 'KDE/4.13'. Apply user setting at login/startup KGamma's saved user settings are not applied on startup/login. The user has to enter the KCM to apply them. This makes it rather useless, as not even saving the settings system-wide really works any more. (this requires an xorg.conf which normally doesn't exist nowadays) This patch uses kcminit to apply these settings again on login. Apparently this has been forgotten to be adapted when moving/porting kgamma to KDE4.

Fix applying user settings at login This fixes applying KGamma's user settings at login. It changes two things: - export kcminit_kgamma() again, this is necessary so that kcminit can call that function to apply the settings - add "X-KDE-Init-Phase=0" to the .desktop file, which is apparently needed since Plasma 5.3 to make it being called at login REVIEW: 124171 M +1 -1 kcmkgamma/kgamma.cpp M +1 -0 kcmkgamma/kgamma.desktop http://commits.kde.org/kgamma/6663ebc14dd9b14f41498c617157e2f059165734
