Nvidia GPU shows zero usage all the time

[Martin Vlk]

I have the nvidia-smi package installed and it shows GPU info correctly.
The monitor though shows zero usage in the graph.
For a short while I was able to get it showing GPU usage, by setting lower refresh rate, but then it stopped working again and now I can't get it working.

Thank you for your bug report. The system monitor is showing CPU usage and not GPU one. Could you add a screenshot of the issue to make sure we are talking about the same thing?
