"To make your preferences available to all users of a system you can
use the Make Default button in the bottom of the dialog. What it will
do is ask for superuser password and copy all the active display
profiles to a system-wide directory (/var/lib/color) where the new
filename matches the device-id. So when a new user logs in, if there
is no device-profiles entry for the device, the system-wide profile is
used."
