Quick Workaround: Try adjusting it on your monitor.

What do you mean, you can't adjust it? Are the options greyed out, or does moving the sliders have no effect?

try this:
Code:

No, nothing is greyed out, sliders moving only flicker display. And my monitor is on max.
Xgamma didnt work in 3d games.

Well, I use an Nvidia card, but I use the gamma plugin for gkrellm to change game gamma.

Give it a shot.
