Safely saving new new gamma setting in the setmon GUI.

Safely saving new new gamma setting in the setmon GUI.
The gamma setting on my Tezro is high and I have set it lower using the setmon GUI, but it doesn't load the new setting every-time the machine boots, so where do I save the new settings file and what do I call it?

Im currently setting the machine up to dual displays and the background looks washed out with the default gamma setting. I have set the gamma to 1 and now I want to save the setting?

This is how it looks, split across the two monitors:

Hi N,

As root in a shell or console type 'gamma 1', this will save and persist through reboots. The value is stored in "/etc/config/system.glGammaVal". I believe changes made through xsetmon need to be loaded every time.

On the 1600SW display precise changes obtained via the ColorLock calibration device can be saved to persist as in the link below.
