Found this on MacFixit.com, maybe it will help:
(quoted without permission, hope its not too illegal):
"ColorSync pulls the name of the
monitor from the EDID data, and tries to generate a
default profile with that name.
Unfortunately, if that name has a '/' in it, Jaguar's
version of ColorSync will be confused
by that and not generate a profile. ColorSync in
10.1.x does not have this issue.
Here's the workaround:
1) Open the Display System
Preferences and take note of the name in the title bar. If
there is not a '/' in the name, this
workaround does not apply to you. In my case, the
name is 'S/M 770TFT' - a Samsung
SyncMaster 770TFT analog LCD flat panel
display.
2) As the administrator user, backup
and then use TextEdit (make sure that it is not
already running) to edit the
following file:
/System/Library/Displays/Overrides/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/Localizable.strings
I prefer to use the Terminal.app to
do this, but there are other ways.
cd
/System/Library/Displays/Overrides/Contents/Resources/English.lproj
sudo cp -p Localizable.strings
Localizable.strings.bak
sudo
/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit/Localizable.strings
It's important to use TextEdit to do
this, because this file is in UTF-8 (Unicode)
format, and TextEdit is the easiest
way to modify it.
3) Add a line of the following form
to the bottom of the file: '<Name from step 1>' =
'<Some name without any '/'
characters in it>' For example, 'S/M 770TFT' =
'Samsung 770TFT'
4) Save the file and quit TextEdit.
5) Restart your machine."
