Thanks, but that's not a bug. Before Jaunty, it was possible to
configure cpufreq-selector to be installed with the setuid bit set. That
was a hack, and it has since been migrated to Policykit. You need to
authenticate with Policykit to change the governor settings (and that
was also the case in Jaunty - it's nothing new).
If you don't want to do that, then you can adjust the policy to allow
you to adjust the frequency without authenticating.
** Changed in: gnome-applets (Ubuntu)
Status: New = Invalid
