I had problems with the new one as well.  It had started throwing window
decorations on it when the default is supposed to be off.  Also
something else was wacky with it but off the top of my head I forget
what.  What I did end up doing is putting the earlier version in that I
like and I've never had problems with.  So it and it's plugins in my
world file appear as:

=x11-plugins/gkrellm-newsticker-0.3
=x11-plugins/gkrellm-reminder-0.3.5
=x11-plugins/gkrellsun-0.2
=app-admin/gkrellm-1.2.13
=x11-plugins/gkrellmms-0.5.6
=x11-plugins/gkrellkam-0.3.4*
=x11-plugins/gkrellm-volume-0.8*
=x11-plugins/gkrellmwho-0.4
=x11-plugins/gkrellm-bfm-0.5.1
=x11-plugins/gkrellshoot-0.3.2
=x11-plugins/gkrellm-seti-0.7.0b

By the way the newsticker is a new plugin I requested.  It's still in
testing stages so masked.  I've however used it in both Mandrake and in
gentoo(both for gkrellm2 and gkrellm) and it's worked fine.  I'm using
an athlon 1GHz T-bird.  What this particular plugin does is fetch news
headlines from various sites you specify and on click loads that site
into your browser.  A listing of free sites is at:

Also I've noticed problems with the xmms plugin for gkrellm2.  It didn't
work when I was on mandrake and it doesn't work for me on gentoo
either.(it tends to crash xmms however gkrellm's earlier plugin - 0.5.6
- works fine)
