Nor me either, I tried all this to narrow it down: { I tried fvwm -debug & ls -ltr /var/log & tinkering with original RC file, & patching out bits of system.fvwmrc, assuming something failing around *GoodStuff - clock.xpm Swallow "xclock" xclock -bg \#908090 -geometry -1500-1500 -padding 0 *GoodStuff(4x1) - whatever SwallowModule "FvwmPager" FvwmPager 0 3 but no luck, I didn't persevere, as I noted: cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm/files/ ; /bin/ls -1 | wc -l # 41 cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm2/files/ ; /bin/ls -1 | wc -l # 2 so wondered if you'd had problems feeding back to fvwm.org, & if I should just move to fvwm2 & customise from there ? > The buildlog doesn't differ enought.

Then I have a spare 386 box I could upgrade to test on: uname -a FreeBSD sony.js.berklix.net 7.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.4-RELEASE #0: Fri Jul 8 01:32:40 CEST 2011 jhs@sony.js.berklix.net:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/GENERIC i386 Its unlikely to be 386 related I guess, as my system.fvwmrc runs on all from {FreeBSD-4.11 to 8.2 } {586 & amd } OK. The amd64 laptop I'm testing on has 3 boot partitions with 9.1-RELEASE, 9.0-RELEASE & 8.3-RELEASE I just re-installed Version 1.24r on all 3, & starting with both default /usr/local/lib/X11/fvwm/system.fvwmrc & my customised system.fvwmrc, I am seeing the same problem on all 6 combinations of 3 x OS-version x 2 x RC files : No lines as in pictures at: http://berklix.com/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/freebsd/ports/jhs/x11-wm/fvwm/debug/ My desktop, also an amd64, with 8.2-RELEASE is OK. from both {8.2 am64 desktop} & a {7.4 i386 ) I can get lines OK on my amd64 9.1-rel OK with setenv DISPLAY lapr:0 fvwm } Maybe something is being installed/ damaged/ shared between /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm[2] not cleaned by make deinstall ? cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm; make deinstall ===> Deinstalling for x11-wm/fvwm ===> fvwm-1.24r_4 has a different PREFIX: /ad6s4/release/9.1-RELEASE/local, skipping cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm2; make deinstall ===> Deinstalling for x11-wm/fvwm2 ===> fvwm-2.6.5_1 has a different PREFIX: /ad6s4/release/9.1-RELEASE/local, skipping pkg_delete /var/db/pkg/fvwm-2.6.5_1; cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm; make reinstall worked but didn't help remove anything hidden interfering. I took a quick look at various bits of http://fvwm.org/ Should we ask there ? Or would answer just be "Try 2.x" Cheers, Julian -- Julian Stacey, BSD Unix Linux C Sys Eng Consultant, Munich http://berklix.com Reply below not above, like a play script. Indent old text with "> ".
