I've created a color calibration for the screen on my Tibook that I think is MUCH better than the Apple default "Color LCD". (To my eyes, the default looks much too bright and washed out).

The trouble is that every time I wake the Tibook from sleep, the display reverts to the Apple default, even though my custom calibration remains highlighted in System Preferences>Displays>Colors.

So, I manually reset it each time. A pain. I tried creating an applescript to do this, but System prefs isn't very scriptable, and even using UI scripting I couldn't get it to work.

There must be a way to make this setting "stick". What am I missing?

Yeah, I have the same issue too (AlBook). What seems to fix it, for me, is to select, "Detect Displays" in the displays menu extra.
