That was my surprise and hope some time ago too. I looked in the man pages and found only some rudimentary entries describing how to convert single colour for the colour selction. I am not aware of any mechanism on how to send Lab or Yuv or something else directly to X for displaying. And I did not found any mechanism on telling X which is the correct monitor profile. This I would call colour management. regards Kai-Uwe
