    Just received my new Acer 1810T from newegg, but I have a few questions.

    1. The display seems to be too blue and cold. Does anyone have any good display profiles for the displays? The colors are a bit washed out and on the cool side.


    2. Is anyone elses touchpad experiencing a dead zone on the bottom 1/4th inch? It gets worse when I install an official synaptic driver. I have googled it and it comes back with Dell and HP owners with synaptic touchpads complaining of the same issues.

    Does anyone have a good display profile? I need a good ICC file with good colors, the display is too blue and its driving me wild.

    I'm fine with the display.

    As for the touchpad issue, it's probably because horizontal scrolling is enabled. In linux, if it is enabled I can't use that part of the touchpad, but as soon as I disable it the whole touchpad works.
