[kde-freebsd] CPU monitor unreliable

[Mel Flynn]

Hi,

A little history, this KDE installation is running on -CURRENT, and has been 
first installed with 4.1.3, lightly upgraded to at present 4.2.3.

The CPU monitor sometimes works and sometimes not. In the setup dialog there's 
never A CPU presented. The reliable way to get it working is to first activate 
the "System Monitor" itself, click the CPU part, then remove the plasmoid and 
add the CPU monitor plasmoid. Restart your session (logout/in/reboot) and once 
again the CPU monitor shows nothing (literally). A visit to the config dialog 
will after clicking cancel or OK, then present you with an Oxychip image, but 
no graph.

Q's:
- Is this my install or are others seeing this too?
- What are relevant pieces of software that might affect this? (hal? top? 
cpufreq?)
- For those not seeing the problem, what CPU is displayed in the configuration 
dialog and what in dmesg?

My dmesg |grep -i cpu:
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU      T2250  @ 1.73GHz (1729.53-MHz 686-class
