How do I uninstall the System Monitor program?

Question

It looks like the Gnome System Monitor programme itself consumes high varying CPU when launched from the system monitor active process list.

Solution 1

I just thought I would add a bash option, so open up your terminal and type the following.

Gnome

sudo apt-get remove gnome-system-monitor

Gnome Shell

sudo apt-get remove gnome-shell-system-monitor

Solution 2

Yes, you can easily uninstall the Gnome System Monitor from the Software Center.

• Open Software Center, type gnome-system-monitor in the search box, click on the result and then click on the remove button as shown:
