Package: gnome-cpufreq-applet
Version: 0.1.1-2
Severity: minor

The gnome-cpufreq-applet preferences dialog has three options, titled
"General Settings":

  ( ) Show CPU usage in frequency
  ( ) Show CPU usage in percentage
  ( ) Don't show CPU usage

However, what the applet actually displays, is the frequency the CPU is
running at, not the number of used CPU cycles ("usage"). Therefore, I
suggest changing the wording to

  ( ) Show CPU frequency as frequency
  ( ) Show CPU frequency as percentage of top speed
  ( ) Don't show CPU frequency

or something similar. This makes much more sense IMHO.

Apart from that, this is an apple I've been looking for for quite some
time now. Thanks for packaging it :-)
