I'm a little confused by your message, but have you investigated the
.hook files that fvwm2 uses for configuration?

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.

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).
