Rory mentioned this at the Chrimbo meal and I thought I'd give it a go. It's a wee tool that adjusts the colour temperature of the screen via xrandr to better match daylight and (maybe) result in less eye-strain. Or just for geeky creds.<br>

If you are using Ubuntu 12.10 (or anything derived from that I guess) there is a bit of a bug and it won't start (some issue with geoclue - <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/geoclue/+bug/1060645" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/<u></u>ubuntu/+source/geoclue/+bug/<u></u>1060645</a> )<br>
<br>
But you can start it by just banging in long:lat like this:<br>
redshift -l 5.9:-1.1<br>
<br>
gtk-redshift can be started the same way<br>
<br>
Those values are approximate for Nottingham.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
