What did you put in /etc/ttys? If you can start X, you just need to start /usr/X11/bin/fvwm as well, after installing it (see page 97 of The Book). You can put the start in your .xinit file, but that's not essential, just a good idea. When you start it up, it should come with a whole lot of clients pre-configured, but one way or another you're going to have to read the man page. Greg
