>Description:
After installing  2.2.2 and  configuring X11 stuff, I tried to run some
of the windows managers, in particular fvwm. The error message I  get is
the manager cannot open the display. I cannot find a sample of the
command line arguments. The man pages only say "display". I tried to
use a several combinations of items in the XF85... config file. But still
come up empty.
