      Same problem on Arch Linux since update of xorg-server to version 1.19.1.

      Kernel: 4.8.13-1-ARCH x86_64 (64 bit)
      Display Server: X.Org 1.19.1
      GLX Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel HD Graphics 530 (Skylake GT2)
      GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 13.0.3


      $ ./xflux12 -l 51.2 -g 4.5 -r 0

      Welcome to xflux (f.lux for X )
      This will only work if you're running X on console.

          @ntc2ntc2 same here for me. -r 0 works on nvidia 367.57 but it would be great if it can be configured for flux gui.

            Standard intel laptop gpu, maybe i965, either way it used to work fine and I can't be the only one....
            Tried to just mash the xflux12 over the top of usr/bin/xflux and got the following (Ubuntu 17.04 upgraded yesterday from 16.04)

                The xflux12 binary with the -r 0 option works for me on one Ubuntu 17.04 system, but on another it spouts the same, "Sorry, we only support 8, 10, 11, and 12-bit displays right now." error.

                Works on 17.04 system with NVidia Quadro FX card using NVidia binary driver v340.102.
                Errors on 17.04 system with i3-7100U, using Intel HD graphics 620. No proprietary driver.

                Linux kernel on both is 4.10.0-20, Anybody get xflux12 working using Intel HD 620 graphics on a 7th gen core i[357]-7Xu processor?

                  "try https://justgetflux.com/linux/xflux12.tgz"

                  Where do i have to put this file?
                  I tried usr\local\bin and usr\bin - there were old files named xflux
                  I removed them and copied the xflux12 as new xflux
                  But it seems not to work. no color change after start of the flux gui
                  The nvidia driver version is 375.39

                    I found a solution for my nvidia cards: Gnome 3.24 has a night mode included.
                    Only one color temperature, but it works.

                      Typing xflux -r 0 in the terminal gives the result:
                      Welcome to xflux (f.lux for X)
                      This will only work if you're running X on console.

                      Usage: xflux [-z zipcode | -l latitude] [-g longitude] [-k colortemp (default 3400)] [-r 1 (use randr)] [-nofork]
                      protip: Say where you are (use -z or -l).

                      So I got the lat-long coordinates from the Flux indicator applet and put them in with:
                      xflux -l -33.8794 -g 151.2193

                      This produced:
                      Welcome to xflux (f.lux for X)
                      This will only work if you're running X on console.

                      Sorry, we only support 8 and 10-bit displays right now.

                      Redshift works.

                      Downloading, extracting and running xflux12 causes the f.lux indicator applet to appear in the launcher and header bar, but when I click on the applet, no window pops up. I get the same results in the terminal.

                        @James-Ray senpai has given up on those of us who run Linux. I guess we'll have to use WINDOZE

                          With an AMD card f.lux also works well. If this is an option for someone.
                          The problem is the driver support from AMD if you want to use openCL and Ubuntu17. There is no official driver...

                                xflux12 work for me.

                                  @herf Will this patch be released officially? I'd much rather update from repos than have to maintain a manual installation.

                                      @justen_m Same issue with Intel i3 6th gen, integrated GPU:

                                      $ ./xflux12 -l 0 -g 0 -r 0 -k 3400 -nofork

                                      This will only work if you're running X on console.
                                      
                                      Found 1 screen.
                                      Display 1 has 0 size

                                        OK, on my old system with Ubuntu16.04 Mate and GTX750ti it works now with version12. :)
                                        On the new system i give it another try because the night mode of Gnome3.24 is not red enough. I hope to find what i had done wrong there.

                                          @herf Adding -r 0 also works for me. I have two displays and both of them get redshifted. I would like to add -r 0 to xfluxgui [...]

                                          Hey, I've got it working with xfluxgui by creating a small wrapper script for xflux.

                                          I´m assuming here that you downloaded xflux11 and saved it on /usr/bin (where the original xflux resides in my Linux Mint).

                                          Move your original /usr/bin/xflux to /usr/bin/xflux.original

                                          Save this script as /usr/bin/xflux

                                          #!/bin/bash
                                          /usr/bin/xflux11 -r 0 $*

                                          Now, when you start xfluxgui, it will start the script that, in turn, will start xflux11 and pass all the parameters you have configured in xfluxgui.

                                          Worked like a charm here.

                                          Btw, kudos to the author. I've been using f.lux for more than a year now and I sleep much faster/better after working late on my computer.

                                            I am working to the the xflux12 version working under Linux Mint 18.3. Found the original xflux, put xflux12 in the same location, then ran it from console so I could see what happened. Went simple and just gave it my zip code, left everything else default. I believe I am running X, don't remember how to tell (it's been a while since I poked my Linux install). I got the following output, which seems to indicate xflux12 thinks it is working, but then something goes wrong. Now what?
