Since you don't have a root window to click on, you'll have to make a keybinding to bring up the menu (I don't think there is one by default.) If you used the setup form when you first installed fvwm, it probably created a .fvwm2rc for you (look for ~/.fvwm2rc or ~/.fvwm/.fvwm2rc), and in that case you can just add something like: Key F12 A M Menu MenuFvwmRoot to the .fvwm2rc, which binds meta (M) + f12 in any (A) context to Menu MenuFvwmRoot (which is defined in the configuration that the setup form generates.) Hope that helps, -- Ben
