** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: gnome-applets
- 
- At some point during the maverick development cycle the cpufreq applet
- started showing the frequency in a grey, almost invisible font.  You
- pretty much can not read the current frequency since even at the bottom
- it is barely light grey, on the dark grey background of the panel, and
- it fades out from bottom to top.
+ Impact on users: Unable to read text in CPU frequency applet
+ Resolution: Add applet to list of elements exempt from the theming
+ Patch: See branch
+ Reproduction:
+ 1. Right click on panel
+ 2. Select "Add to panel..."
+ 3. Select "CPU frequency scaling monitor"
+ 4. Select Add
+ Expected behaviour: Applet is shown with the current frequency (e.g. 800MHz)
+ Observed behaviour: Applet is shown but text is in dark colour on dark background
+ Regression potential: Low, as this is only excluding a specific applet from the theming
