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!
Best Regards,
David
