[argyllcms] DELL Laptop RGBLED calibration

The environment:
Dell M6400 with RGBLED WUXGA 16.7M colors display (wide gamut?)
Ubuntu 9.04

The problem:
Oversaturated and wrong colors

The target:
obtaining more natural colors with all my desktop apps (not only with
profile aware apps). I'm a software developer and I need to see the same
colors my customers are going to see.

I'm wondering if I can obtain this calibrating the monitor with a
colorimeter and Argyll.

If it can be done, I have some more questions:

1) which instrument would you recommend? I'd go with Eye-One LT, which
seems (googling around) compatible with both Argyll and my LED/wide
gamut display. And what about Huey?

2) I've a small Vista installation on my laptop, just in case I need it
for troubleshooting (Dell doesn't support Ubuntu on my laptop). Can I
eventually run the device native calibrating software on windows and
then load the resulting profile in Ubuntu?

Thanks in advance.

Marcello
