I have been using fvwm-crystal

for long years (something like 10+ years), it is my preferred and exclusive
WM for anything I do on the computer for its lightness, speed and
customization power, but passing from fvwm-crystal of Debian Wheezy (7.x)
stable release to the current version 3.3.1+dfsg-1 of the stable Jessie
(8.x) I found great inconveniences, especially these:
* windows auto-positioning not correctly aligned to screen borders
(Alt+h/j/k/l)
* reboot/turn off buttons do not work anymore even though I configured my
user into sudoers file
* shortcuts to control the volume (Alt+, and Alt+.) and audio buttons on
the control bar do not work anymore independently which mixer or player I
set (I use alsamixer/alsaplayer usually)
* FVWM command window (Alt+;) has been removed and I don't know how to
invoke it to recover windows that (seldom) I lose outside the virtual
screens

  Unfortunately I do not have anymore the time to wandering around all the
configuration files to customize and fix fvwm-crystal again.
  Is there a way to solve this things? I can't guarantee a full commitment,
but I would help in some way, at least solving these major issues.


  Thanks in advance
