I had problems with fvwm in Sid a while ago. Firefox didn't appear in
fvwm (the process was ok: just waiting for user interaction which it
couldn't get cause I couldn't see it) but starting it from another wm
(openbox) and switching to fvwm after was ok (but not really
userfriendly).
Bugs were posted for fvwm and after an upgrade it was ok. Unfortunately
both fvwm and firefox were upgraded at that time. So I can't tell which
was the one to blame.
