Hi,

So far I sort of like this.

I have a few comments,

1) Wall paper changing isn't working.
I get the message:

[fvwm-root] failed to load image file 'images/background/bg2.png'

The files are there:

  /usr/local/share/fvwm/default-config/images/background:
  -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 550823 Oct 23 19:54 bg2.png

I think maybe "default-config" isn't in the images path?


2) The right panel goes all the way to the bottom of the screen
but it's empty.  I don't like it wasting space.

3) "refresh" is in the menus.  Is that something users will use?

4) Olive Drab?

5) I have windows without mini-icons and they are difficult
to see in the pager.

6) There should be a menu to invoke the modules.
Especially FvwmAnimate.
