colour management and profile

Please help the newbie here!

How does one use the different profile options:

I have

- the samsung LCD monitor profile (.icm) file (not sure if it's usable by gimp)

- the Costco lab icc profile (.icc) file

Gimp ask me (in Edit->Preferences->Colour Management) for:

- RGB profile - CMKY profile
- Monitor profile
- Print simulation profile

Right now:

- I set gimp in "Print Simulation mode" - use the .icm file for Monitor profile (not sure it doesn't anything) - use the Costco lab icc profile for the other options (RGB profile, CMKY profile, Print simulation profile)

What are the correct settings?

Thanx

There are no correct settings as color management is not yet completely implemented. You better disable color management as you will only get wrong results with the current implementation.

Hm, it seems to do a fair job most of the time, thought.
