I just finished install Ubuntu 8.04 on my iMac G3 400 Mhz. And when I went to use ubuntu-tweak I shaw the option for the CPU...

So, it appears that only with Ubuntu 8.10 is that option gone / not available.

So, to sum up.

The disappearance is only when using Ubuntu 8.10 or Ubuntu Studio 8.10 with ubuntu-tweak versions 0.4.2 & 0.4.3

Adding Power Management options to have CPU speed control under different conditions (performance/battery saving, etc) no longer appear in ubuntu-tweak under System/Power Management/Advance Power Management Settings

Help, each time I reboot I have to set my Desktop CPU speed to performance. And each time I reboot my Laptop I have to reset it to PowerSave. I can no longer just ignore these system settings. Like I use to.

I had to use: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets just to be able to change these System Values. Man I miss ubuntu-tweaks fixing/controlling this up for me.

They way I set the CPU speed at present is using sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets then installing the panel applet for cpu speed. Then clicking the applet after each boot.

It happens with 10.04 lucid lynx. I have installed the processor speed applet and sometimes at boot it disappears from the upper bar. The applet is there, because if I select it, the left and right menu fire, but the applet icon is gone. If you remove it and add it again , you have it again for some time, till to the next random time it disappears.

Can you help with this problem?
