[Message part 6 (text/plain, inline)]

To reproduce (on an desktop computer):

Add enlightenment to your system config, reconfigure,
reboot, log in and click through the Enlightenment
first start dialogue (which itself reveals more bugs ;))
and the first message box you get after you completed
the first start dialogue and E21 has loaded is this:

Cpufreq Permissions Error

The freqset binary in the cpufreq module
is not owned by root or does not have the
setuid bit set. Please ensure this is the
case. For example:

sudo chown root /gnu/store/aaaaaaaaaaa-enlightenment-0.21.7/lib/enlightenment/modules/cpufreq/linux-gnu-x86_64-ver-0.21/freqset
sudo chmod u+s,a+x /gnu/store/aaaaaaaaaaa-enlightenment-0.21.7/lib/enlightenment/modules/cpufreq/linux-gnu-x86_64-ver-0.21/freqset




It seems like we need to have an 'enlightenment-service' similar to
xfce4 and gnome.

There's a number of dysfunctional features at the moment, I like to
track them all in related or unique bugs.
