I tried calibrating my 701's TFT gamma by eye. It's not exact because the gamma changes with viewing angle, but when the screen is perpendicular to your line of sight, the gamma is around 2.0-2.1. So if the 755CX's TFT is similar, the above xdvi option is making things look as they should. Don't ask me to explain what gamma is. Go look at: http://photo.net/photo/fixing-gamma.html -- John H.
