I just installed D3 on my Linux box - everything works and runs 
smoothly, but unfortunately the game is unplayable because of this 
brightness thing:
I need to adjust brightness and contrast (because of this problem with 
LCDs displaying dark color shades kinda weirdly). I can use the 
nvidia_settings utility, but the problem is, Doom 3 overrides these 
settings and the r_brightness setting doesn't really help, because it 
actually adjusts image intensity, not brightness (it multiplies instead 
of adding).

Is there a workaround for this problem? Perhaps a setting which tells 
Doom not to tinker with the gamma tables?
