Thank you!

vi_ : Thank you. I see that

Code:

dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.get_profile

also returns the profile, but in a more verbose statement.
I think in this case only the "silent" or "general" returned by

Code:

cat /home/user/.profiled/current

would be easier to work with.
