  I figured out how to do this manually within the monitor (I de-installed f.lux), with Custom RGB settings (please see below). I'm doing ok with two monitors, and these two settings: 2400K and 3400K For more details, please see my post titled: Flickering screen, again, with the latest version: f.lux (v4.118) . . . (08/04/20 I accidentally put this in the V3 forum) Research suggests that f.lux must talk directly to display hardware to work – no remote desktops. I'm curious to see if you get good results also! 2400 K #ff9d3f Standard incandescent lamps . . . HP E272q 255,157,63 (255,157,63) rgb(255,157,63) rgb(100%,62%,25%) 3400 K #ffc184 HALOGEN . . .

  Q

  It's too many clicks to get to this slider from the menubar. I'm just wondering if I am missing something in the UI. My workaround is not great: I keep the Preferences panel open but because it is so honking large, all i can think to do is drag it as far off screen as I can... But it's far from ideal. Would love if I could have a little tiny slider. Is there any way to map something like this to the flux functionality?
• iOS

  f.lux runs on jailbroken iOS devices or on iOS9 with a sideload.

  I am using f.lux on my Mac so I downloaded Cydia after jail breaking my iPad (IOS 9.1). However there is no f.lux app to install on this version of Cydia. Also there is no "search" function inside Cydia like your website directions state. Is there another way to get f.lux on my iPad?

  @dsw2222 said in "Sorry, we only support 8 and 10-bit displays right now.": #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/xflux11 -r 0 $* you can go further and do this the elegant debian way create the script as /usr/local/bin/xflux and make it executable copy the xflux12 binary as /usr/local/bin/xflux12 and make it executable run this once: update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/xflux xflux /usr/local/bin/xflux 100

  It seems the version you are installing might not be updated or else it wouldn't be compatible with Sony Xperia Z tablet

  @mb1285 I figured out how to do it manually with the monitor RGB settings. I'm doing ok with two monitors, and these two settings: 2400K and 3400K Manually reproduce flux on your monitor - Technicus . . . Research suggests that f.lux must talk directly to display hardware to work – no remote desktops . . . The monitors allow me to manually select RGB percentages. The trick was translating 3400k (f.lux setting) to percentages of red, green, and blue . . . Searching Google for the RGB values of 3400k revealed this page . . . 3400k translates to the hex values #ffc184 . . . The last step was translating that hex to percentages. Googling “ffc183 in percentage rgb” revealed this link . . . 100% red . . . 76% green . . . 51% blue . . . [on a scale of 0 to 255? close, but use the conversion web page values] . . . R 255 . . .
