We have both Linux boxes and FreeBSD boxes, and fvwm95 works
fine on both.  Unfortunately, the people who make the packages
on both systems put the icons in different locations.  Have
you checked your PixmapPath and IconPath (in your .fvwmrc) so
that they include /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fvwm95-2/icons/ and
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fvwm95-2/mini-icons/ on the FreeBSD side?
