+<para>This document describes &kgamma; version 1.0.2 (KDE 3.2)</para>
+<para>&kgamma; is a tool for monitor gamma correction.  With proper gamma
+settings, your display (websites, images, etc.) will look the same on your
+monitor as on other monitors.</para>
+<para>&kgamma; allows you to alter the monitor's gamma correction of
+XFree86. But that's not all to do. For good results you have to set the
+correct brightness, contrast and color balance of your monitor. This
+may be difficult and you have to repeat every step several times.
+For perfect results you need really good (and expensive) hardware.</para>
+<para>This are system settings, please do not use &kgamma; to manipulate your
+image files.</para>

+<sect1 id="Setting-Gamma">
+<title>Setting Gamma Correction</title>
+<para>Use the four sliders to define the gamma correction either as a single
+value, or separately for the red, green and blue components. The XFree86
+default setting for gamma is 1.00 (Mac 1.80, WinXX 2.20). The test images help
+you to find proper settings.</para>
+<para>To store the gamma settings system wide, enable the option 'Store
+settings to XF86Config'. The system settings will be restored at next XFree86
+startup. You need root access to use this option. Use this if you want to
+correct the gamma settings for all users and graphical environments on this
+machine.</para>
+<para>To store the gamma settings to your personal KDE configuration, do not
+enable that option. The user settings will be restored at next KDE startup and
+replace temporary the system gamma settings. The system settings are not removed by
+that and will be restored at next XFree86 startup.</para>
+<para>On multi head systems, select the screen you want to alter with the combo
+box. This will also work with xinerama enabled. If you want to set all screens
+to the same gamma values, enable the 'Sync screens' option. On systems with only
+one screen this option will take no effect.</para>

+or the "Gamma" slider of &kgamma; to correct this. If black is not pure black,
+try to darken the monitor, if white is not pure white, try to lighten
+it. If you see any colors in the gray tones alter the color balance settings of
+your monitor or the "Red", "Green" and "Blue" slider of &kgamma;.</para>
