 +==== Help! I cannot change CPU frequency nor governor in the CPU information dialog ====
 +This is not a bug, though it might look like one because of the widgets used that pretentiously suggest the user could change something. Changing CPU frequency or the governor is not implemented and probably will never be, as it is supposed to be handled by the kernel or power manager. The only function this plugin nowadays performs is showing CPU frequency information. The CPU info dialog is a remnant of the past when it was still possible to change these settings (or at least when it was planned to implement this). It will be redesigned to use proper widgets in a future version. More information about this can be read in [[https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3428|bug #3428]].
