Do you still think they may not be real xpm files?
No, the fvwm-icons package should be all xpm files. abc.xpm is not the name of an fvwm icon. Post the exact text of the error message you get. Also do: fvwm -V (this will show whether fvwm has xpm support) -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
