this is wrong.
.fvwmrc is the file that configures _fvwm_ -- it's
a windowmanager config file; kde startup stuff is configured in other
places, and besides -- what it uses is called 'kpanel', not taskbar.
try changing your .xinitrc (the file that _really_ configures X-windows
startup) to read something like:
#!/bin/bash
kfm &
kpanel &
exec kwm
this assumes, of course, that the only thing you want to run is
kde and you don't have a nifty .xinitrc that's configured to
take $WINDOWMANAGER options from xdm... if that's the case, trying
sticking a 'kpanel.kdelnk' in your ~/Desktop/Autostart directory
(just edit another .kdelnk entry to point to kpanel instead).
or, alternatively, ask rick...
