X problems

[Nathan E Norman <finn@midco.net>]

First off, I know jack about X.

Having said that, I have an STB Velocity 3D with 4 MB of RAM ... I
installed xbase and xserver-svga, as well as fvwm2, olvwm, wmaker, and
afterstep.  I chose Virge/VX as my "board" type when I ran XF86Setup.

Here's the problem.  If I try to run afterstep or wmaker, I get a blank
screen and the PC locks up hard.  If I set olvwm or fvwm2 as my window
manager, X runs fine. 

Now, I hate to start a war here, but olvwm and fvwm2 (and twm) don't do
much for me - I'd like to try these other window managers!  But, it
seems I can't ... anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
