I'm having issues with gkrellm as well.  I tend to put gkrellm on desktop 10 on the left side.  I'd like it to be on screen 1 as well.  When I first login, gkrellm is on desktop 1 and on screen 2.  I have to move it every time.  Usually I right click on the top bar of a window,  select More Actions and either Window Settings or Application Settings, depending on which I want.  I can then add Properties and set it like I want.  It is best to have it like you want it before you start.  It already has the settings that way.  I do this for Seamonkey, both browser and email, QB and a few other apps.  Thing is, gkrellm doesn't have a title bar to right click on.  It works fine on my old rig but not on the new rig.  When I had to use the old rig to watch TV, I checked, I couldn't find anything that tells gkrellm to be where it is but it comes up where I want it each time, apparently without me doing anything at all.  New rig, it goes to the wrong place every single time.  It's wrong but it is consistent.  I have KDE set to remember what was open and where at logout.  I don't know if KDE just isn't remembering where to put gkrellm because it isn't really a window or what.  I might add tho, even tho screen 1 is set as primary, it still acts like screen 2 is primary for some things.  I wonder if that is why gkrellm parks itself on screen 2 instead.  Some apps I use open to screen 2 until I set up a rule forcing it to open on screen 1.  It should open there by default but it doesn't.  I might add, when I plug in a USB stick, the notification thingy pops up on screen 2, not screen 1 where it should be.  I mention all this because it might give you a clue on where or how KDE is working now.  Clearly gkrellm is unique because I can get everything else to work right, even if I have to force it with window/application rules.  Oh, when looking at window rules in System Settings, it has a export and import feature.  I never saw that before.  Might be new.  It's at the top I think.  If you use that tool, may want to back up your settings when you get everything done.  Hope that gives you some clue to a fix.  Maybe.  Dale :-)  :-)
