We’ll see with flare. But basically you’d calibrate the monitor to spec and go from there, yeah. The monitor wouldn’t change when booting into Linux I don’t think.
We have tried to get the EliteBook 8740w with Dreamcolor display on Nvidia 5000M to work under linux and can not get the laptop display to work. The generic driver works fine but as soon as any Nvidia Linux driver loads (we have tried them all) the display goes dark
An external monitor works fine but not the HP Dreamcolor panel
Reports on the web report this issue with no fix so far
Hi John,
Nice article.
I have this dreamcolor notebook. I have found the factory srgb mode clips white levels (the http://www.lagom.nl website, white saturation level test is a useful check), could you please check out whether after your recalibration with the profiling solution, the srgb displays black levels and white levels properly( all the square patches of the black level and white saturation tests should be visible ideally)
If the HP profiler does a better job than the factory calibration i would be keen to buy it.
Thanks in advance
Hi John,
did I understand correctly that with a calibrated monitor (and sRGB profile for web video work) I would deactivate color management in After Effects?

what about in Linux with Flare? Would you just use the puck and Lustre Color?

But I’ll find out….

Has anyone gotten this to work?
We intended to use this for an Autodesk Flare

Hi John,
this was exactly the info I was looking for! Thanks!
I have a Elitebook 8760w with a Dreamcolor Panel and MDA – does the HP Profiling Solution also work on this model?
