Description Vincent 2005-04-14 17:50:59 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
The slot/window devoted to CPU usage does not work i.e nothing is shown and it
remains black.
Other stats (network, load, swap, RAM) are working fine. This problem did not
occur on 2.8 and it seems it started failing since 2.9.x.

Removing the applet and deleting its configuration file (~/.gnome2/procman IIRC)
did not help.

I'm running 2.10 built with GARNOME 2.10.0.1 on my RHEL WS3 box.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add the system monitor applet to your panel. By default, it shows the CPU
usage slot/window.



Actual results:
Nothing is shown whatever the machine load is.

Expected results:
The CPU usage should be shown. Note that the system monitor works fine as it
correctly shows the CPU usage if I open it using a right click on the applet.

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Are you running Linux 2.4 ?

I believe davyd has already fixed this issue.

Looks like a dup of #170921. Either upgrade your kernel or gnome-applets :)

I have the same issue on vanilla kernel 2.4.30 and GNOME 2.10.0.
Comment 6 Benoît Dejean 2005-04-14 20:25:05 UTC 
i meant a 2.6.x kernel.

Hello back,

This is indeed a duplicate of #170921. I tried the proposed patch on
gnome-applets-2.10.0 on and it works perfectly! Many thanks.
