The project brings you instant desktop colour correction on GPU through

does this mean that you dont need to tell applications about the monitor profile anymore? for example if you load a profile into the gimp, will the colours be double corrected?

A application will typical see the _ICC_PROFILE(_xxx) in Xorg. But the colour server replaces this for backward compatibility with a generic sRGB on. So the application converts to sRGB and from there Compicc converts to monitor space.

For applications which care, the native monitor space is still available.
But the have to communicate a bit with the colour server.
They can tell the colour server to opt out for a certain region in their window and do then the color conversion instead by their own.

kind regards
