Error - cpu-frequency selector unavailable

Error - cpu-frequency selector unavailable

System details: September 12th, 2006 - GNOME 2.16 cvs - Gentoo

Stage: Execution

CPU frequency selector applet doesn't allow user to set frequency (monitor-only).

Cause:

The applet requires that cpufreq-selector be SUID root which is often not the case when installed under jhbuild.

Solution:

chown root ${PREFIX}/bin/cpufreq-selector
chmod ug+s ${PREFIX}/bin/cpufreq-selector
