Yes.  I remember around 1999 when I bought my first 3DFX card - I was terribly 
disappointed how the graphics changed from looking 'gothic' like crispness to 
sort of like browny-orange (and very, very dark).

But since then, I got used to it, but still need to adjust gamma using SDL to 
be able to see a damn thing.  Still, the best for Linux Quake2, I feel.
