Hello folks,
I'm new to fvwm and have a question
Currently in my .xinitrc file I have the following
fvwm-themes-start &
xterm $(XT_GEOM)+0+$(XT_Y0 $XT_ARGS &
xterm $(XT_GEOM)+540+$(XT_Y) $XT_ARGS &
etc.
Its an easy way for me to space the windows and specify the xterm args
in one line.
Anyway, I find that if I kill one of the xterms, it kills fvwm as well -
this is my problem - I'ld like for fvwm to stay up with my other xterms.
Hey Frank,
I think the problem is that your fvwm command should be the last thing
in the .xinitrc file, and without the & putting it in the background. I
could be totally wrong here, not an expert, but my observation has been
that X automatically closes when the last program in .xinitrc is
terminated (or goes into the background), which I think is why your X is
closing when you kill the xterm which is the last app in your .xinitrc.
Hope that works.
