Known hardware issues

Unlock color temperature profiles

The Dell monitors we used during development claimed they did not support DDC color temperature profiles. However both tested Dell models did in fact have some level of color temperature profile support. This is the reason why we included a feature to unlock color temperature profiles allowing users to try it out regardless of the monitor exposed capabilities.
