It's not tainting the kernel - only kernel drivers can do that by being non-GPL licensed. You either have a non-GPL module loaded, or you have patched your kernel. However, gkrellm crashing seems to be unrelated to this fact, but I'm afraid I can't help with the cause.
Gkrellm2 is not tainting your kernel nvidia is. Modules linked in: ... nvidia... It is most likely not gkrellm that messed things up but that gkrellm asked the kernel for information from a part of the kernel that was hosed and that is what caused the crash. If you can re-produce this problem without the nvidia kernel module loaded then the kernel developers will help you resolve it. You also have a number of I2C drivers loaded and these are used by gkrellm to probe the system for temps and fan speeds. This should be resolved as invalid until it can be reproduced w/o nVidia stuff.
no more problems for some time now.
