Tired eyes when using Philips 193v monitor












0














I decided to get used to Linux systems, but for some reason they make my eyes get tired (unlike Windows).



My monitor (Philips 193v)



The graphics card from the company Axel3D - Nvidia GeForce GTS450 Rev.2 - 2GB 128-bit. The monitor has only VGA connector for the wires. It is strange that in Windows all is well.



I tried:




  • Running Ubuntu from Wayland.

  • Changing the frequency of the screen through the terminal

  • Changing image resolution

  • Changing the Brightness / Contrast

  • Changing the DPI of the monitor from the terminal

  • Using different versions of graphics card drivers.


This is not about fonts, because my eyes get tired even if I don't read anything.

  • I'm not sure what you're asking. Lubuntu comes with LXDE (not XFCE - that's Xubuntu); there is no Debian 9.60 but I'm not sure why you're listing lots of off-topic distros of GNU/Linux anyway. Have you tried using red-shift, gnome's night-light & adjust the colors for 'day' to be less glary (like it does by default for night). Red-shift has great ability to adjust temperature of light and more (for both day & night!) and it's what I'd try. But I'd suggest you remove other distro's from your question unless you ask on SE's Unix & Linux which is distro-agnostic.

    I'm sorry, I made a mistake when I listed the distributions. And about redshift, Yes, I tried to use it, but it doesn't help. Also I tried to use standard tools of brightness adjustment which appeared in ubuntu 18.04
