Bug Description

sometimes after booting up my laptop, one frequency value of the frequency monitor applets of my core duo's processors is missing. i can't remember if it's cpu0 or cpu1. to fix it, i have to change the value from frequency to percentage. and then again from percentage to frequency. i will add image of it on the next message. i'm using gnome in spanish. i can't confirm if this happends on other gnome translations.

despues de que arranca mi laptop, uno de los applets de frecuencia de los procesadores de mi core duo, le hace falta el valor en frecuencia. ya no recuerdo si es el cpu0 o cpu1. esto pasa en mi gnome en español. no puedo confirmar si esto pasa en otros idiomas de gnome.

I too am experiencing this bug. No text displays for the applet of either CPU0 or CPU1 unless I go into preferences and select "Show CPU frequency as percentage". At that point, I can switch it back.

Also, when loading as only graphic mode, CPU0 appears a few pixels lower on the taskbar than CPU1. This is alleviated by switching to "Text" in "Appearance" and the switching back.

Is there some output that could help point out where this bug is coming from? I'll be happy to post it.
