Normally I'd have display set for 1024x768. I've found I can get normal color on the GUI if I switch to 1600x900. However, even then, if I switch to console (F1-F6) or if the screensaver comes on, on return the psychedelic colors are back. If I log out / log in to the desktop, normal colors return with the 1600x900 setting only. AMD A10-7860K Radeon R7.

Thanks in advance for any help.Try a different theme. The switch from GTK-2 to GTK-3 results in a mess if the wrong theme is used.Thanks. :) Using GTK-ChTheme (which says it's for GTK+ 2, but I don't see a similar utility for GTK+ 3) I switched to Xfce 4.4 but got no improvement. Should I be approaching this theme change some other way?You have the right idea, however, perhaps try adwaita, which is a GTK-3 specific theme.Whoa! I tried to take screenshots so folks could see what I've been trying to describe. Shot of normal screen turns out as expected. Shot of psychedelic screen turns out ... identical to shot of normal screen!!! In other words, what's present in graphic memory space is not the same as what's being transmitted to my display/monitor, sometimes. Where's Rod Serling when we need him...? :) I remember another list user was asking same question with identical symptoms sometime ago. -- With kindest regards, Alexander. ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian - The universal operating system ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://www.debian.org ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ |
