Sounds like your running afterstep from an xterm and you probably already
have fvwm or a simlair Window Manager running.

Start X from a console with xinit &, that will open up a default xterm
in X but with no window managers open so you won't be able to resize etc.
Just type cd /work/Afterstep-1.0/afterstep ; ./afterstep & and it should
work fine
