-      Unfortunately, many vendor-supplied ICC profiles do not include the
-      information required for whole-screen color correction.
-      These profiles can still be useful for applications that can do color
-      compensation, but you will not see all the colors of your screen change.
+      There are situations, when a display profile may not include vcgt tag
+      (refer to <emphasis>What's the difference between calibration and
+      characterization?</emphasis>) and yet it does not necessarily mean that the profile
+      is bad.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      A display profile without the vcgt tag can still be used for color-aware
+      applications as long as the display is in a defined state, for which
+      the profile was created.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      If it is a generic display profile made available by the display vendor,
+      then it describes "expected state" of the display and there is no use for
+      further calibration via video card LUT. Of course, such a profile is only
+      as good as the display state matches the vendor's expectation - an
+      average new display of the same type with factory default settings.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      If it is a custom profile made by the user for a display with hardware
+      calibration (which happens in the display electronics), then the
+      display is already fully calibrated to a defined state and further
+      adjustment to video card LUT is not necessary.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      Note that hardware-calibrated displays require use of color measuring
+      device and proprietary vendor's software, which usually does not run on
+      Linux. Anyway, it is fairly possible to calibrate the display using a
+      supported operating system and then use the ICC profile in Linux with
+      GNOME Color Manager.
