Description Josh Lee 2005-12-21 18:09:04 UTC 
When system-monitor is started, the graphs in the "Resources" tab do not begin 
monitoring until the resources tab is opened for the first time. I had system 
monitor running in the background, assuming that it was tracking CPU and memory 
usage, but it was not because I had the wrong tab open.

The graphs should start monitoring right away.

They can't.
Comment 2 Teppo Turtiainen 2005-12-23 20:50:43 UTC 
Confirmed with System Monitor 2.12.1 on Ubuntu Breezy.
Comment 3 Benoît Dejean 2005-12-24 13:34:45 UTC 
Only the memory graph could start rigth away, cpu loads and net load are percentage and they have to wait one time interval before drawing anything.
This is not a bug.

That is not what this bug is about. Steps to reproduce:

1. Open System Monitor and select the Processes tab.
2. Close and restart System Monitor.
3. Wait for a while.
4. Select the Resources tab and expect to see the resources usage since you restarted System Monitor.
5. Notice that System Monitor only now starts drawing the graphs.

IIRC, this was a request not to start graphs until first click on the resource tab, in order to save some cpu.
