Caught ya'??  ;-)

You have not installed fvwm in Fedora 8 have you? From the Fedora repos?

I just  did to try this and it is listed in the 'sessions' section of the
login screen and choosing it asks if you want it to be default. Which it does.

Enjoy.

Hmmm.
Thought I installed it when I installed the system...
It is too bad anaconda will not let me point to the linux/releases/8/Everything directory on the ext3 file system in the USB connected hard drive as a repo while installing.

one `yum install fvwm` later...
OOOHH YES!!! now I have to remember how to configure it. :}

Thanks for the pointy stick. :)
