Right, I finally managed to get somewhere. Not with fvwm, but at least with a window manager, openbox. In the end I had to:
- edit startx so that defaultserverargs="" because otherwise by default it will open in multiwindow mode which will conflict with any window manager, and then - provide a C:\.xinitrc file which just contains exec openbox I then got overconfident and tried to configure, make and install fvwm2 (the latest version, which is required if you want to use fvwm-themes), and it wasn't looking good so I decided I was being a bit fancy and cut my losses, reverting back to openbox. Maybe later. Thanks for the help anyway guys. cheers, Ian This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are intended only for the use of the addressee(s).
