Hi,
I just started to use fvwm. I like it very much.
I have some problems/questions that I could not figure out.
I am using fvwm-2.4.20 on Fedora 9.
****
1. Start X11
I setup .xinit and .xsession:
-rwxrwxr-x 1 hegedus hegedus 63 2008-09-10 10:04 .xinitrc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 hegedus hegedus 8 2008-09-09 10:03 .xsession -> .xinitrc
content:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/fvwm > $HOME/.fvwm/fvwm.log 2>&1
If I use startx, fvwm starts fine. No problem, only
"abs 0.9.0 appVersion=2.0.0.14 mTB3=0" in my log file.
However, if I want to log from the graphical login screen (gdm, I suspect),
there is a black screen for a few seconds then I get the login screen back.
If I switch to a console to check out the login files then my characters
starts to disappear: like a virus under windows.
A few weeks ago I setup fvwm on a RedHat EL4 and I did not have any problem.
Any idea?

2. Iconize Firefox
I have the following definitions:
Style "Firefox" Icon $[fvwm_icons]/mozicon50.xpm, MiniIcon
$[fvwm_icons]/mozicon16.xpm
Style "Thunderbird-bin" Icon $[fvwm_icons]/thunderbird48.xpm, MiniIcon
$[fvwm_icons]/thunderbird16.xpm
No problem with Thunderbird. But If I iconize Firefox to the desktop,
most of the time
I get the 16pixel icon and not the 50pixel one. If I have the 16px icon
on the desktop
and do an "Fvwm Restart", most of the time the Firefox icon size changes
to the
expected 50px.

3. Color definitions
I use the 'simple' window style definition (downloaded from the fvwm
website).
So the colouring seems to work. But if I define a new colorset and want
to apply
it on something, like on the pager, it does not work. I do not get any
error
message in the log file.
# I created this color set to see notice change after FvwmRestart
Colorset 41 fg blue, hi yellow, sh white, bg red
# FvwmPager
Style "FvwmPager" NoTitle, Sticky, WindowListSkip, CirculateSkip,
StaysOnTop, \
FixedPosition
DestroyModuleConfig FvwmPager: *
*FvwmPager: Geometry 150x320-0+0
*FvwmPager: Rows 2
*FvwmPager: Colorset * 41
*FvwmPager: HilightColorset * 41
*FvwmPager: BalloonColorset * 41
*FvwmPager: WindowColorsets 41 41

Small question: I have the default mini-icon on the pager's icon in the
pager.
How to set it 'none'?
Many thanks for your help and suggestion in advance,
Tamas
