Hi, I use fvwm2, and it works without real problem. Lots of desktop features are designed within .fvwm2rc. In other systems, some X local features are designed within a .Xdefaults file. I did not find any global template for .Xdefaults in Debian. Nevertheless, I wonder if creating such a file can be avoided when using X through fvwm2. I confess that I have not a clear idea of which configures what. I suppose that .Xdefaults is just fit for raw X commands and .fvwm2rc for the upper graphic layer, but it helps little.
For example, it has been said that running a color Xterm (which is very convenient) needs only to add the line 'Xterm*customization: -color'. OK. So, I created a .Xdefaults file into my home directory with this single line, but this was without any effect (in fact, I expected no more. Things are more complex). I did not even success to change the default shinning white background of the xterm windows (pity for my eyes !). I performed a grep white command on the config files, but it gave me nothing. Has somebody some ideas about it ? Regards, JP L ------------------------------------------:-) Jean-Paul Lacharme.
