Assuming you have switched on in the File->Preferences->Color Management 
tab:
[Copy Oyranos Settings] and
[Colourmanage new displays By Default]

The lower [Profile Settings] frame should be grayed out.

Oyranos will search in the typical ICC profile paths:
~/.color/icc
/usr/share/color/icc
/usr/local/share/color/icc

Did you install the oyranos profile packages. I do not know in which 
fedora repository these can be found. They contain at least a sRGB.icc to 
have some fallback for your display.
