indicator-multiload (System Load Indicator) don't show cpu usage correctly

  • 772

I have accidentally deleted CPU usage percentage from indicator-multiload menu and now I can't remember what it syntax looks like and can't go back to how it was.

  • Possibility 1 (simplest one). Can someone who currently use idicator-multiload and have CPU usage displayed go to Preferences --> Menu items... and paste these few lines in answer?
  • Possibility 2. Does anyone know where idicator-multiload stores config file/s. I cant find it in ~/.config ? `sudo apt-get purge indicator-multiload` evidently didn't removed configuration file, I have executed it and then reinstalled package with `sudo apt-get install indicator-multiload` and it restored my (broken) settings.
  • Possibility 3. Does anyone simply know the correct syntax wich displays e.g. CPU 34%, iowait [something]?

    I hope this is what you need:

    from system load indicator:

    CPU: $(percent(cpu.inuse)), iowait $(percent(cpu.io))
