I mean the windows do not have anything surrounding them. The whole title
bar of the window is missing. I am therefore unable to move windows
around. Another thing I noticed was that I am unable to get the pop up
menus (when I click on a blank background part of the screen) for buttons 1,
2 & 3. My FvwmButtons don't appear. All I get is an xterm and when I quit
this xterm my x session ends and I get thrown back to console. I tried
poking around a bit and found out that /usr/sbin/xbase-config does not do
anything. It just quits. Maybe I should try strace-ing it to find out what
is happening.
