"CPU Frequency Montior" and "Mail Watcher" issues

when you click on the "CPU Frequency Montior" you get a window designed to change the cpu goverenor
this applet used to ask for a password if you changed the setting, it no longer does

the "Mail Watcher" alerts you every time the number of unread messages changes
for example if i have 2 messages and i read one it plays the new mail sound
:idea: anyone have a conky script for gmail?

Nothing new in Ubuntu, set in the .pkla in self explanatory screen, Xubuntu also has this .pkla

how does this file help?

Code:

---

/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla

'Help' may be relative to your pov

The section in the .pkla overrides the policykit default action in /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.gnome.cpufreqselector.policy -
<allow_active>auth_admin_keep</allow_active>

with
ResultActive=yes
(for users in the admin or sudo group

( In a Ubuntu 12.10 install there are 2 actions so they've added a separate .pkla for the
com.ubuntu.indicatorcpufreqselector.setfrequencysc aling one.
