It's probably ten years or more since I configured

I found I could remove a display but I could only add blank displays
which I could find no way to configure.
It took me three hours but eventually I succeeded by restoring my
~/.trinity/share/apps/ksysguard/KSysGuardApplet.xml from backup
and then manually editing it WHILE TRINITY WAS NOT RUNNING.
Is there a better way to configure the Sysguard app in a panel?

Nobody else seems to be responding to what I *believe* you are asking, so I am
going to take a stab at this, and at least clarify for myself what is the
problem.
Do you want to add ksysguard to the panel (lower, upper ...)? The lower panel
tends to give me problems, as well, now and again, so I avoid it with a kind
of primitive superstitious dread. But is done simply enough: just find the
icon (start menu under System heading), then drag it to the panel. Unlock the
panel before doing this, then unlock it; if not, my panel gets messed up, and
I can waste a whole day just trying to put things back right.
Or, what seems more likely: Do you want to configure your ksysguard *after* it
has already been added to the panel? I don't see the problem here, as it can
still be opened from the start menu, and configured there.
I am assuming that, by sysguard, you mean ksysguard, but I could be wrong. And
it could be that you are talking about some other problem entirely beyond
that, as this doesn't seem so big a problem.
And then ...
Okay, so I just tried it myself. I don't use ksysguard so much nowadays,
although I used to keep it running all the time. And everything seemed to
work just fine ... until, as you say, I added it to my lower panel, then
opened and tried to configure; all I get is a blank page, no way to change,
no way to add a running intance, etc.
Now my ksysguard also is not working, even though I have added it to the
panel, then removed it. Now when I open it from the start menu, or by using
alt-F2, ksysguard opens, but with a blank page, instead of showing running
processes.
