Put the following line into your ~/.xinitrc: exec fvwm Create one if it doesn't exist (or comment out the lines pointing to other window managers if it does). Then start your X server by running $ startx This will read your ~/.xinitrc and then start the X server and finally fvwm. The "exec" tells the X server to stay up and running until fvwm is shut down. It then also will shut down. Hope that helped. grZ Dani
