Looked at the changes after the merge...

It seems that merge is incomplete, btw. Since I was not expecting this kind of thing \
to happen, I wasn't keeping the color2 branch in my repo clone up to date on a \
regular basis. It looks like the last commit in that is on 23 oct. and I remember \
working and fixing the color stuff in the weekend around 27 oct. And the part that \
removes the forceAlpha is clearly missing from the merge.

So, the changes of this merge are incomplete and possibly flawed. A commit with the \
remaining changes can be done, closing this review request and fixing the possible \
flaws.

And the forceAlpha review can be also closed properly with one commit.

I can't see what I've changed during that 27 oct weekend because the changes are only \
on the big computer back home and I don't remember exactly what I've done :( . \
Clearly, the forceAlpha thing is there. I will be back home on Tuesday.

That&#39;s wrong (correct approach would have been to nag Fredrik directly and in \
time about the pending question), but excusable.

There&#39;s however actually no excuse for the form, sorry. And period.

You&#39;re holding a GSoC students hand, so you can not be considered a noob - at \
least you need the experience to act responsible. The diff isn&#39;t that large and \
most of it is in the added files, so it would have been reasonable and very easy and \
taken less than a minute to condense it into one commit instead of pushing all 25(!) \

*must* have seen the mess before the push.

Also we just very recently had the very same incident reg. dolphin [1] which was \
escalated to k-c-d

So please don&#39;t try to blame anyone else for the mess you created, you&#39;re \
embarrassing yourself.

FWWI:
Breaking the feature/string &quot;freeze&quot; by a day or so would not have been \
remotely as problematic as what has happened now.

So much for this particular incident.
It happened, everybody has hopefully learned sth. out of it.
Done.

Now in general:
I&#39;m not sure whether this is caused by GSoC making ppl. nervous and hasty or \
whatever, but in case it becomes a recurring issue i&#39;d actually propose to \
blacklist any merge from user branches into origin/* but for white-listed component \
maintainers (notice: not commits in general, just branch merges) because we cannot \
post-teach that thrice a year - makes git usage completely pointless.

And ftr: by the above i mean in this case &quot;... but for Martin&quot;, explicitly \

This color correction needs KolorManager installed, master branch. That one needs \
Oyranos and additional color management dependencies. \
git://anongit.kde.org/kolor-manager.git         http://www.oyranos.org/downloads

If it&#39;s not installed, the ColorCorrection class should fail without causing any \
issues to the user (that&#39;s if it&#39;s enabled from the KCM). Probably a \
notification could be appropriate in that case? &quot;Failed to initialize CC because \
cannot contact Kolor-Server KDED...&quot; something like that?

Change summary:
--
Add an option to kcmcompositing in the &#39;Advanced&#39; tab, to enable or disable \
color correction. It is specified that it&#39;s experimental and it needs Kolor \
Manager. This implies some small changes to options.h and cpp.

Scene::finalPaintWindow code is moved into SceneOpenGL::performPaint.
SceneOpenGL has the declarations of some methods changed to include the screen number \
- those could be changed to pass around PaintData&#39;s probably. SceneOpenGL&#39;s \
newly implemented finalDrawWindow splits the rendering if color correction is enabled \
and there are multiple screens. Before painting for a particular screen, \
ColorCorrection::setupForOutput should be called.

There was a problem with the blending function causing artifacts with color \
correction enabled so it is set up to src_alpha, one_minus_src alpha in that case.

Now, inside KWinEffects:
--
A screen property is added for WindowPaintData.
In kwinglutils, The fragment shaders are intercepted before being compiled and they \
get a couple of lines of code inserted in order to do the color stuff. This happens \
only when color correction is enabled, of course.

And there is the big ColorCorrection class. The public and private stuff are well \
separated.

The private stuff consists of the private data and the D-Bus interface. Regarding \
D-Bus, everything is async.

The implementation basically manages a set of color lookup tables for different \
outputs and for different window regions. These are taken via D-Bus. Each lookup \
table has around 700 KB. I hope I am not wrong in assuming it&#39;s not that big of \
an issue time-wise, since they are transferred only once or twice for an entire \
session. I hope D-Bus doesn&#39;t do any time consuming business to transfer those \
QVector&#39;s.

In case of problems, it should not affect the rest of KWin in any way.

Next priorities:
--
Implement per-window-region stuff. It should be a matter of extending \
KolorServer&#39;s capabilities and doing some small modifications in \
SceneOpenGL::Window. The ColorCorrection class from KWinEffects has everything \
prepared. </pre>

should make the KDED module available.

Restarted KWin, enabled color correction in KCM compositing, advanced tab.

Played a bit with commands like:
oyranos-monitor -d 0 XYZ.icc
oyranos-monitor -d 1 Lab.icc
Those set up particular profiles for the monitors. However, it seems there is a \
problem with reverting to the normal ones. The code regarding that is taken directly \
from CompICC, so I don&#39;t know whether it&#39;s a bug or a feature. Anyway, \
it&#39;s from Kolor-Server.

Apparently, everything works as planned. But I cannot distinguish visible differences \
for the profiles used for the different monitors by default.


After testing with the newest Oyranos, there is an issue at login, the custom color \
profiles are not loaded at first because of an issue in Oyranos probably. It will be \
fixed soon.</pre>  </td>
