Package: gnome-applets Version: 3.4.1-4 Severity: normal cpufreq-applet is unable to display the CPU speed on my system because the scaling_cur_freq file does not exist. See http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTI5Mzc for details.
cpufreq-info uses the cpuinfo_cur_freq file, but for reasons that are probably not relevant anymore it is only readable by root: http://www.spinics.net/lists/cpufreq/msg02104.html . This is the same issue reported in https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-applets/issues/52 .
