For some reason, on the following boot, it bothered to read ~/.fvwmrc (or .fvwmrc2; I seem to have both that are either identical or hard links; the timestamps & sizes are identical. I think this came after I discovered that vi is *not* /bin/vi, but /usr/bin/vi . . . which isn't much help when your problem is that you need to edit /etc/fstab to change where /usr is . . .
