Argyll CMS might work for you depending on the precision you want and the presence of a spyder colorimeter.

Gamma test images and other graphics tests will get you close. There are lots of them on the Internet. They are just pictures to get your monitor approximately tuned.

I read somewhere that F13 introduced a new color management system by default making it easy to calibrate a monitor.
