As to the vLUTs, I cannot answer.  I can say that the distinctive 
profiles (created using the Spyder2) are applied to the monitors and 
that I am able to soft proof in Photoshop which is what I want.  Is 
there a way to tell if the vLUTs are being set?

In my case, I use the CRT for my image and the flat panel for the 
tool pallets, etc. under PS.  I can get a very good calibration on 
the CRT but, at best, I can get the flat panel close. As I said in 
the earlier note, I used the video card application plus the (few) 
controls on the flat panel to tame down the brightness and contrast 
to an "acceptable" level.  I then calibrated it with the Sypder2 but 
don't bother redoing it very often.  I do recalibrate the CRT on a 
regular basis.

This works for me but I am always open to a better solution.  Every 
time I think I understand computers (been playing with them for 40 
years) and color management, I find out how little I do know.
