Hi,

So far I uninstall firmware-linux-nonfree package and then assign my ICC
color profiles. Finally I install the firmware-linux-nonfree package
again. That works for me.


With Firmware-linux-nonfree installed, I'm not able to use an important
fonctionnality of color management in general and Gnome Color Management
in particular that is assigning ICC color profiles to devices.


I'm not sure: should this bug be assigned to Gnome-color-manager or
severity set to critical (makes unrelated software on the system break)?


Thanks,

I don't believe this can be a bug in the firmware. I think it's just
that the video driver behaves differently when the firmware is
installed, and this triggers a bug in gnome-color-manager. There might
also be a driver bug, though.

I'll assign it to gnome-color-manager in the hope that the maintainer
can at least work out where this is going wrong.

You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
