Those messages regarding missing character sets are not from X,
but are from FVWM. FVWM's i18n is now being greatly redesigned so
probably this exact problem has already gone. Try asking at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-- those folks are very helpful.
BTW, you don't mention your setup -- which version of X, which
distro, fvwm2 -version. That would help to identify/isolate your problem.
Sincerely yours,
