Zos, thank you for the pointers to those two packages.
I just downloaded argyll, and will take a look at it.
The software that comes with ColorMunki Display is indeed very "skinny".
I was surprised that it only allows to save a profile, but doesn't allow
loading a previously saved profile.
While the software allows multiple display calibration, inability of
loading different profiles for different conditions of the same display is
dissapointing.
I haven't experienced much of problems with the accuracy (but I might be
not as demanding user in this case), but I've been
fighting a lot with the problem caused by the conflict with the Windows'
video driver "persistence" service that I mentioned earlier.
(I do need that persistence service, so I cannot afford disabling it.)
I am very disappointed that while it is a well known problem, X-Rite
doesn't bother to provide any warning/reference to it, and I am not even
talking that they didn't bother to find a work-around.
Actually, in regard to that, I still have an unresolved quest:
A one-click (or very minimial number of clicks) solution for loading
an existing display profile under Windows 7.
It can be a separate small program, or whatever reasonable setup.
I would greatly appreciate if someone knows such a solution.
Best regards,
Igor

The colormunki is good but slow. The included software is not very
accurate in profiling though. It just doesn't sample enough and runs
very quickly. The i1 has better support with CMS software and seems to
have a much more professional profiling software solution. The
colormunki can be unlocked with argyll cms and displaycal and can be
used to generate profiles that are as accurate as the i1. They really
just gimped the software more than anything. It is a good device that
can calibrate monitors and printers unlike the i1 that only does
monitors. The experience and results out of the box are not very
optimal though quite honestly. It will give you better than what you
had, but nothing like real profiling with argyll. The colormunki is
something like 2x as slow to register values too so profiling with
argyll takes an hour or so. It goes much quicker with the i1. Just
some thoughts.
