The last I heard, gkrellm did not have the ability to be configured in a horizontal alignment, so can not be used in horizontal panels, and can only be configured in a vertical direction.
They have a short FAQ that might provide more info here:

found a solution
i added the sensors-lm package from the repository, then clicked on the top taskbar and added "hardware sensors monitor." then i configured the settings and added min and max temps. i even get a warning when it gets too hot. once again ubuntu rules
