I installed ubuntu on my PC but literally only the green color channel outputs to my monitor. Everything is a shade of green. The blue and red pixels are off the entire time and I can't figure out why.

It's not an issue with my monitor because it looks fine on windows and the monitor's onboard settings menu is the normal color
I have tried switching the color profile in Ubuntu settings to sRGB and that didn't help
I have tried changing my Nvidia driver to other versions using the Nvidia X Server shit and that doesn't help
+ I tried using Mint and Tails OS on a live USB drive and those are completely green too

How the fuck do I fix this? Linux gods please help me

Try extracting (and optionally modifying) the EDID in Windows and applying it in Ubuntu to see if that fixes it.

I just tried this and everything is still green

Is your card very new?

>>1539090
It's a Nvidia Geforce RTX 3060. I wouldn't really say it's very new
>>
check the cable lol

>>1539096
Then why does it still display correctly when I boot up windows

That might not be what the problem is, but grey shows up as green when RGB gets misinterpreted as YUV so here goes:
Make sure the input and output color formats are both set to RGB or YPbPr/YCbCr.
Either works, but they need to match. Ideally, go with RGB.
For input (monitor), that depends on your monitor. For mine, in the OSD, it's Display / Input Color Format.
For output (video card), in NVIDIA Settings: GPU # / <Output> - (<Monitor>) / Controls / Color Controls / Color Space.

There is no option on my monitor to change the input color or anything to do with color at all aside from temperature. But changing the Nvidia settings didn't help either. I'll just set my fucking gay monitor on fire and buy a new one that's not gay
>>
Oh & I forgot to say thanks to you guys for the help / advice (even if it didn't fix my issue)
