When my KDE 3.5.5 desktop starts up, Gkrellm2 flickers for a minute or so -
then stabilizes, and looks as it should. CPU usage, flickers between 5-15%
on each thread of a P4 2,8ghz.

I noticed in my Ksysguard, loads of Gkrellm2 instances - 45-50 of them - and
I killed the lot.

Then renamed the ~/.gkrellm2 folder, and started Gkrellm2 from CLI. I get
this error;

gkrellm2:16158): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "qtengine",

(gkrellm2:16158): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "qtengine",

What is that about?.

This issue came up a week ago, when I replaced the GPU cooler with a Zalman
cupper thingy, and as a result lost the GPU temp monitor.

This is totally normal, gkrellm2 searches for a theme that has the same
name as your gtk theme and of course it doesn't exist so a warning occures.

So this is totally unrelated to the weird behaviour I get from Gkrellm2.

Thanks.
