if it's helpful, here's a bit more feedback on the gamma issue:

as others have mentioned, the gamma becomes affected on both primary and secondary screens as soon as the beta server is selected and you hit connect. this also happens when connecting to blue or red in order to initiate a char copy. This does not happen when connecting to different servers (hidden forest, for example)

In response to people talking about classic and not being able to see -- human races (hum, bar, eru) couldn't see without light sources, but other races with infravision, ultravision, etc could. You know this. In addition, not being able to see as a function of race had no effect on the gamma of your UI, whereas this issue does.

So, we're not just talking darkness because it's night, we're talking darkness of your spell bar, inventory, etc.

hopefully that helps with pinpointing the issue.
