Public bug reported:
I first noticed this problem in Ubuntu 16.04. It didn't occur in 14.04.
I don't use non-LTS versions so I'm not exactly sure when it started.
Basically, the display keeps resetting to the default without me doing
anything. So I've customized it like so:
gsettings set de.mh21.indicator-multiload.graphs.load enabled true
gsettings set de.mh21.indicator-multiload.graphs.cpu enabled true
gsettings set de.mh21.indicator-multiload.graphs.disk enabled true
gsettings set de.mh21.indicator-multiload.graphs.net enabled true
gsettings set de.mh21.indicator-multiload.graphs.swap enabled true
gsettings set de.mh21.indicator-multiload.graphs.mem enabled true
And it looks like the attached file indicator-multiload-customized.png
But for whatever reason it keeps getting reset. I dug further into it,
and apparently the cause is indicator-expression-index keeps getting set
to different values. One time it was set to 1, and it looked like the
attached file indicator-multiload-reset-1.png:
$ dconf read /de/mh21/indicator-multiload/general/indicator-expression-index
1
Another time it was set to 6, and it looked like the attached file
indicator-multiload-reset-2.png
The workaround is very simple:
dconf reset /de/mh21/indicator-multiload/general/indicator-expression-
index
But the problem is that indicator-expression-index keeps getting changed
on its own without any intervention on my part.
