An error message would appear on the console that gkrellm was
started from.

I have a tarball with a bunch of debug statements added and it
should say what the problem is.  So give this a try:

    http://members.dslextreme.com/users/billw/test/gkrellmss.tar.gz

Untar it, and in the gkrellmss directory:

   $ make
   $ gkrellm -p src/gkrellmss.so -debug46 > somefile

If the ALSA capture device can't be opened, then there might
not be anything in "somefile", but there should be a popup
telling the reason.  If ALSA is opened, then the log file
will fill fast so you don't need to run for very long.
