I don't really understand what I'm supposed to do with oyranos.. e.g. 
where I'm supposed to get the profiles from. I thought oyranos would 
include some default one.. but these directories are still empty.
I thought I'd download the video card driver for my laptop from dell 
site -- but it doesn't seem to include an icc profile, either.

Am I missing something here?
