The problem seems to appeare only launching XTERM from buttons on fvwm95
yesterday with:
argo:~$ xterm -ls -sb -fn 8x13 -title "Color xterm" &
there was the same problem, today only launching from button !?
The only difference from yesterday is that today I've started from
Start -> xterm
when yesterday I was started with the button.
Thanks for attention,
Guido.
