I installed the System Load Indicator GNOME extension on my Ubuntu 18.04, but for some reason, instead of showing a proper graph for CPU usage, it only shows a very thin line that seems to be a small portion of the actual graph. If I hover over it, the proper graph shows. How to make it show the whole graph all the time?

  • Could you provide the link to the extension you installed? Also, have you re-logged in or rebooted once after installing the extension (this is important)?

    Hmm... that looks like an indicator originally written for Unity (not exactly a GNOME extension). Not sure what's going wrong with it, but if you are okay with an alternative I can suggest this GNOME extension: extensions.gnome.org/extension/120/system-monitor

System Load Indicator was originally written for Unity, hence may not behave well with GNOME shell.



If you want to try an alternative solution which is compatible with GNOME, you may use a GNOME extension called "system-monitor". It does




Display system informations in gnome shell status bar, such as memory usage, cpu usage, network rates…
