Hi Dominique, I think some additional steps are needed in order to make the applications menu to work.On gentoo, fvwm-menu-desktop is just installed at the same time than fvwm, but no configuration at all is made. It works only with fvwm 2.6.6 and only from CVS. the latest snapshot is buggy - fvwm-menu-desktop-config.fpl isnt available there. This file creates theconfig gui.

I have tested it on several distributions -Fedora, Arch, OpenSuse, Debian and Ubuntu and on all it works correctly. If I run fvwm-menu-desktop, it output nothing. If I run the examples in the man page and try other options, fvwm tell me they are obsolete. fvwm-menu-desktop fvwm-menu-desktop --desktop kde-user --enable-mini-icons WARNING: Argument desktop obsolete. Ignored. fvwm-menu-desktop --type gtk WARNING: Argument type obsolete. Ignored. Thats right. These are options from the old perl script.
