I've just switched on a new machine with suse 11.3. Apparently it has bundled fvwm 2.5.26.

I'm getting some errors using my old .fvwm2rc (happily running on suse 9.2 with fvwm 2.5.10). E.g. no pager, no desktops etc. I suspect some paths have changed.

Before I look into it directly, I created a fresh dummy user, and started
a fvwm session from scratch. That comes out with some default theme, but does not create any .fvwm2rc (or config, as I realize it should now be called based on the man page). So I suspect it uses some system default.

It would be a good idea for me to look at that to merge in useful stuff.
But where is it based ?

The man page mentions 2+5 possible locations, in ~, /usr/local/share
and /etc. None of which exists. I have however found one in
/etc/X11/fvwn2/system.fvwmrc (which is even "signed" Thomas Adams).

Is it the correct one to look at ?

Thanks
