I also have a Rev.D Eye-One Pro (UV-Cut if that makes any difference).
When do you expect a new build (RC3?) will be posted with this fix in it?
How close are you getting to the release of 1.1.0 final?

Is there a setting for integration time in Argyll?
If you create a test build with that adaptive reading mode enabled, feel
free to email it to me an I'll test it out.
