yes, that's probably what's happening. Gkrellm is started both via  
session-management and through the autostart link and both processes  
probably hang forever fighting for the lock-file that is created on  
startup. Another way to get around this is to disable session saving  
in KDE, in case you're not using session-management at all. I  
recommend using it though and forgetting about this autostart  
directory altogether as it's more or less an old leftover from KDE1  
times.
