xfce4-diskperf-plugin does not work on Debian Etch

Hi,

I just installed Debian Etch with Debian Installer RC2 on AMD64 with
Xfce (4.3.99.2).

(http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/etch_ … e-CD-1.iso)

xfce4-diskperf-plugin 2.0-2 is already included in that installation.

I have two SATA drives connected to my nVidia main board.

They are /dev/sda and /dev/sdb and work fine.

But when I add "Disk performance monitor" to xfce bar and
enter /dev/sda as device, the performance of that drive is not shown.

And when I log out of xfce and then log in, the "Disk performance
monitor" item is not in the xfce bar anymore.

What could be the problem?

$ uname -r
2.6.18-4-amd64
$ cat /boot/config-2.6.18-4-amd64 | grep BLK_STATS
$ 

How can I see if CONFIG_BLK_STATS is activated in running kernel?

I did install xfce 4.4.1 and xfce-goodies 4.4.0 both with the graphical installer. now disk performance monitor works.
