The early mentioned version on
http://www.littlecms.com/profilers.htm

has also an option to generate a monitor profile if there is no icc
profile available for your monitor.
If gamma values are provided (coarse profile) or with a measurment sheet
(accurate profile)

To get the corrected picture use for example the program imagemagick
convert commando:
 convert <filename.png> -profile scanner.icc -profile monitor.icc <new
filename.png>


For some more information see also the new profiler at:

http://www.littlecms.com/lcms_profiler_beta_3.exe

There is no linux version of this new profiler but scanner profiles can
be generated with wine (if wine version is from dec. 2003 of newer).
No luck yet with generating a monitor profile (with wine)
