Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-applets

I have a Thinkpad X61s running Lucid. On coming back from resume the cpu frequency is always stuck at the maximum (1.4GHz). I can change it down using the cpufreq applet but it does not stick, and it seems like it should. top shows that the cpu is mostly idle.

Thank you for your bug report but that's not a gnome-applets issue, the applet is there to let you use change the current value, it doesn't do any tracking and doesn't force the value later on if something else do changes

not sure, there is already several bugs which have been opened about that, either linux should be doing it or some sort of service should be added to do that I guess, in any case it's not a desktop issue...
