Binary package hint: gnome-applets

First time set of CPU frequency (so privileges not yet granted). No privilege elevation window appeared, but the crash report did.

Setting status to "confirmed" since it also happens on an other computer. But this time, the privilege elevation (allow the user to change CPU frequency) has already been done before, so this bug has nothing to do at least with "first time" privilege elevation.

[Rich (rincebrain)]

Confirming this.

[Mathieu Marquer (slasher-fun)]

Seems fixed for me. If Rich can confirm the bug has also disappeared with him, I will close this bug report.

[Max Bowsher (maxb)]

It is not fixed, confirming still a problem.

[darylb (darylblanc)]

I've also just reproduced this bug on Jaunty with todays updates (20th Feb 2009).

[Mathieu Marquer (slasher-fun)]

Yep, me too. So finally not fixed for me

[Hellsgator (hellsgate)]

confirmed.

[daveskis (findgriffin)]

confirmed on amd64

[UGN (eugene-korneev)]

confirmed (asus eee 701 4g) Jaunty with todays updates.
i try "cpufreq-selector -f 900000&" and set freq, but applet dont work.

I have the sampe problem. It is stuck on 800MHz. It has crashed one or two times when I was trying to set it to "Performance" or one of the other settings, but now it just ignore every attempt to change anything.

[vitorallo (vito-rallo)]

I still have the problem,
I use
cpufreq-selector -g performance
to select the correct performance governor. Of course we wait for the
bug to be fixed
