Thank you for your great help Lars and Hans !

now it does work, this is one more reason to stick to linux.

What I did change:

installed new release Wine 0.9.55
moved profiles in folder
$HOME/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/spool/drivers/color/

(My Wine is set on Win2000, but Photoshop created and installed all profiles in
$HOME/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/Color/). As the other folder didn't exist,
I was genuine enough to think everything's alright.


Adobe Gamma does not really profile the monitor but could be better than
nothing. Now also this works:

wine control "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Programme/Gemeinsame
Dateien/Adobe/Calibration/Adobe Gamma.cpl"

Only while adjusting the Gamma value (I have to do that numerically) Adobe
Gamma changes the Gamma of the entire Desktop (this doesn't happen in Windows)!
At the end I save the new profile overwriting "sRGB Color Space Profile.icm" -
it will be used by Photoshop then.

After finishing Adobe Gamma the Desktop keeps the changed Gamma so when using
Photoshop with the new monitor profile, the Gamma would be applied twice.

Rebooting solves that, but the Monitor Gamma can also be reset by starting
"Adobe Gamma" once more and setting the old Gamma Value there. When you shut
down "Adobe Gamma" by closing the console at this stage - the old Gamma is back
(don't close the applet window itself).

The progress of wine is really impressive. I already thought about using
windows again because I want to use a real 16bit Photoshop (in PS6 and PS7
working with layers and masks is only possible with 8bit).

Cheers and thanks again
Roland
