      xflux12 work for me.

      Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca (Ubuntu 14.04 trusty)
      Linux-x86_64 AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core
      NVIDIA Driver Version: 384.90
      Server Version Number: 11.0
      Server Vendor String: The X.Org Foundation
      Server Vendor Version: 1.15.1 (11501000)

      The previous versions don't work with new Nvidia 384.90 driver:

      Sorry, we only support 24/32-bit displays right now.
      XF86VidModeGetGammaRampSize returned 2048 entries.

        @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
            --------
            Welcome to xflux (f.lux for X)
            This will only work if you're running X on console.
            
            Found 1 screen.
            Display 1 has 0 size
            Sorry, we only support 8, 10, 11, and 12-bit displays right now.

              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?

                    @waldyd Same "Display 1 has 0 size" problem for me on Ubuntu 18.04, on an old Thinkpad x230. Tried both of xflux11 and xflux12.

                        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
