I have been using fvwm-2.6.9 as my window manager on Gentoo Linux. My favorite feature is the virtual desktops of which I use a 2x2 configuration.
After discovering the release of fvwm3, I downloaded, configured, compiled, and installed fvwm3 the same way as I do for fvwm-2.6.9. When I started fvwm3 using the same config file as with fvwm-2.6.9 there were no apparent problems. However, my virtual desktops were missing. The config file specifies a 2x2 arrangement but with fvwm3 I only get a 2x1 arrangement. The lower two virtual desktops are not present. Checking the documentation for fvwm3 there does not seem to be a change in how the virtual desktops should be defined. Is this a known problem with fvwm3? Is there anything I can do to get a 2x2 arrangement of virtual desktops? LP
