[avinas]

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

Uses abnormal processor resources. CPU graphs is messed up. Looks like monitor is trying to repaint curve each time after update.

I have no idea. For few seconds it is starting normal, but later ...
Please find screen shot in attachment.

I just installed, enabled Nvidia restricted drivers and gnome-system-monitor is working now.
I think it was something related with glx drivers or configuration.

Same again

AMD X2 4200+ / NVidia 8600GT
Same problems, different configurations, it's a bug system.
