[hobbit] trends graph stop graphing

I have removed most of what has been added recently.  I started with the
items that were less default than the standard.  This wasn't the fix.  I
did remove an external script that is used as well.  I will continue to
remove and see if I can find something.

Hi,

Strange.

Have few tried removing all the hosts you added in your monitoring in
the last 2 months ?
(it could be a client sending bad statuses..)

Do you have any NCV or external scripts for rrd ?
(di you tried disabling those ?)
