system status widget does not work correctly

[Leonidas Arvanitis]

Binary package hint: plasma-widget-system-status

Using plasma-widget-system-status 0.5-0ubuntu6 under Kubuntu 9.04 (beta):
* the widget is listed as System Monitor under Add Widgets dialog while it should be called System Status or System Load Monitor to avoid confusion with another widget sharing the same name. It seams to me that the name has changed according to the kde-apps page
* after adding the widget to the panel it doesn't work (the bars remain empty no matter the actual load)
* there is no custom icon in the Add Widgets dialog and the default one is used, which I understand might not be 'buntu's responsibility

Finally there is a new version available (0.6)

Confirm on Kubuntu Jaunty beta AMD64. Empty data when widget is in panel or in desktop like on previos screenshot.

afunix, in KDE 4.3 on Kubuntu you can use another widget - "System Load Viewer", it have exactly like "system status" functional.
