Hi Aurélien, It works turn out it's the "syntax" error and I set both CAP_SYS_ADMIN as well as CAP_PERFMON and reboot and now the pie chart showing the value correctly.
sudo setcap 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN=+ep' /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/ksystemstats_intel_helper sudo setcap 'CAP_PERFMON=+ep' /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/ksystemstats_intel_helper Thank you so much!
