Hi,

it's been a long time since I used fvwm. But since I haven't seen any other
response maybe I can suggest some keywords that might help when searching
the docs (http://www.fvwm.org/documentation/):

I guess you have to define a customized window decoration without everything
you don't want: http://www.zensites.net/fvwm/guide/window.html

Then assign this decoration to the windows by means of the Style command:
http://www.fvwm.org/doc/unstable/commands/Style.html

I think you cannot use "no decoration". You have to define a non default
decoration for some of your windows. What file? Some years ago it was
.fvwmrc or something similar in /etc or /etc/X11. Probably man fvwm should
help.

Sorry if this doesn't help, it's all I remember right now.

Gero.
