gkrellm and fvwm are competing for a grab on the pointer.  The
beep indicates that fvwm has finally given up.  Make sure you don
not have any mouse bindings like

  Mouse 1 w ... Function ...

in your fvwm config.  And ask the gkrellm people to use the
method defined in the wm-spec aka EWMH spec to move their windows
rather that doing it on their own.  This would avoid the problem
altogether.
