nvidia-settings file

Can someone please post or send me their ~/.nvidia-settings-rc file?

Preferably if you've changed brightness, contrast and gamma from the default values.

Okay, but I don't remember if I changed anything on that one or not. On this box I have the new 8178 drivers and there is not such file.

Here's one with brightness and contrast set to "0.550" and gamma set to "2.556". Additionally, I set XV saturation way up from normal as well.

You most certainly DON'T want to see what my monitor currently looks like with these settings!!!

I just now looked at what I cut/pasted above. I can't see anything that obviously indicates my brightness/contrast setting changes. My guess would be that those changes might actually show up elsewhere - xorg.conf perhaps. I CAN see my XV saturation change however...

Thanks all.

Just so happens that I've got one on this box now. I got a new monitor today, and the contrast, brightness, and color are bad. It will be returned Monday, but here's the ~/.nvidia-settings-rc file after changing many settings:

Why don't you just use "nvidia-settings" app and click on "Reset to Defaults" button?

My nvidia-settings program was seg-faulting upon startup (an error in the gui), and so the settings wouldn't apply. But if you ran it with the -l flag (no gui), then the settings would apply properly. But I needed an rc file because I didn't have one (one gets autogenerated the first time the nvidia-settings gui runs successfully). Anyway, the bug was reported to nvidia and they have released a patch here.
