Aside, I'm out-of-date here: xicc (make ICC profile available) in 
conjuction with xcalib (LUT load), but apparently more-nowadays, people 
favour dispwin from argyllcms (debian package argyll) that manages both, 
and also makes it easily autoapplied from a known location [1][2]

(yes, [2] is misnamed, it's mentioned on the talk page as an issue with
