I had the same problem with ~/.xsession. chmod it as executable. > Another problem is that I fail to set the background color >for X. xrootcoIor -solid "SteelBlue" (I hape I didn't make a typo here, I'm >not at my machine) doesn't do anything. Is there a special place in fvwmrc for >this, or should it be in xinitrc (but that was the first problem)? Hmmm I duuno about this. I used xsetbg in ~/.xsession and set a bitmap. I'm using fvwm95 and I do remember seeing a line in there for a basic color. This is what mine has as the default. It might work on plain fvwm. # # Set the default window colors. The syntax is: # DefaultColors winforecolor winbackcolor titleforecolor titlebackcolor # where: # winbackcolor is the background (border) color of all windows, # including the menu windows # winforecolor is used for the menu text # titlebackcolor is the background color used for title bars of # non selected windows # titleforecolor is the color of the title text of non selected windows # DefaultColors Black #c0c0c0 #c0c0c0 grey51 Hope I helped.....you're on your own with the other questions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave 'Kill a Cop' Cinege (aka Psychopath #3) --- Super Genius at Large "Just cause ya got the power, that don't mean ya got the right!" - Lemmy http://www.psychosis.com/ Harry Browne for President in '96 Libertarian Party 1-800-682-1776 http://www.HarryBrowne96.org/ http://www.lp.org/ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
