From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

That would actually be great! I need a completely un-managed baseline to build off. How is it done?
I have too much sunk cost fallacy with this now and cannot turn back. If you have any practical tips for survival please share them!
Uhh displaycal? I think is the program. Last I looked nothing worked right in Wayland or gnome, so if either of those are in your setup it’s worth getting rid of em.
You’re not gonna like my practical tip: generate a profile on Windows or mac computer and copy the profile to the linux machine.
I don’t know what you’re actually trying to accomplish so if that’s not absolutely secret squirrel shit maybe lay it out but my other advice is the same as the first verse: use a mac instead of trying to colorimeter a linux attached display. Unless you’ve shelled out for a very good monitor, use a mac with a built in display.
