Installing nvidia-glx has fixed this for me.

besides that the graph is not properly scaled the whole live system
seems to stall/being occupied by the system monitor. The load on 1 off
my 2 CPUs goes up to 100% according to the monitor.

the text on the graph axis is not readable. similar to

Status in Source Package "gnome-system-monitor" in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

I display the resources tab of system monitor, showing the 3 History graphs.

When I then resize the window (increasing the size), beyond about 600 pixels in height or beyond about 700 pixels width, the graph backgrounds and scales turn negative, and graph refresh fails to consistently redraw over previously displayed lines. The graph line thickens.

When I maximise the system monitor window (screen size is 1620x1050), system monitor displays the same behavior, but also the application freezes - failing to respond to mouse-clicks - changing tabs, etc . When I close the window the system monitor closes successfully.
