So you only see what happens in FvwmConsole (can I ask you to name FvwmConsole as FvwmConsole and not console?). The error "execution of module /home/jos/nonexistingmodule failed" appears in the same place you have all X output (including FvwmDebug). > Now I just tried to run the module from the commandline.

If it works from the command line, the problem should be in the communication code, but if you say FvwmDebug works, I don't know. Is it possible that only GTK based modules do not work? Please continue to debug the problem and find where your errors are. Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
