Upon running the command "dispwin -I Dell_2407.icc" I found that it

However it put the profile into
"/root/.local/share/color/icc/devices/display". Is this expected
behavior? What am I doing wrong?
You probably want to specify the profile scope:
<http://www.argyllcms.com/doc/dispwin.html#S>
ie. -Sl to get local scope
[ I'll fix the doco to note that both Linux and Vista support
local and user scope. ]
So sorry I missed this. Must have read that page 50 times, but never
really took notice of that. In any event, I tried running dispwin -S l
-I Dell_2407.icc both as myself and as root. In both cases it faults
with the following output:

How can I find out if my system is able to get the display EDID. If
it helps, I have an nVidia GE Force Go 7400 card and when I run the
proprietary nvidia-settings program it tells me everything about the
display. However, I did notice that whenever I run an ArgyllCMS
command I get the following error:
"XRandR 1.2 is faulty - falling back to older extensions"
Does Argyll use XRandR to get the EDID info...or does it use some
other method?
It will try to get the EDID from the server atoms. I'm not sure if there
is any easy way of knowing if the EDID is being used, or the fallback
of the server name. Looking through the JSON files that are created,
to see what identifier is being used is one way.
I have no JSON files in my user scope (i.e. ~/.local/...../display).
Should I have? Because of the above error I have nothing in my machine
(local) scope, but I'll check there once we figure out why dispwin crashed.
