Hmm, I also use Fvwm as my default window manager under Ubuntu and I don't have these problems.
>From the top of my head I can tell you that I let fvwm switch focus (steal focus?) to the xterm when it appears (is created) because I usually want to start typing right away. (I call up an xterm with the "Win-R" key combo and don't want to go hunting for it with the mouse first). If you want I can sent the Style components from my .fvwm for you to compare (or my entire .fvwm, nothing secret there, just somewhat large-ish). But I am in MS-Windows right now (business day, work needs to be done, calendar needs to be synchronised to the iPhone).
