('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hello all,

I am trying to install the currrent stable fvwm release on a Sun Blade (OS5) machine to which I don't have SU access. I get through the ./configure --prefix=/home/allan, make, make install stages no problem. But... how do I then run the new installation rather than the standard one put there by su?

I can't run one window manager on top of another and when I login with fvwm it offers me only the old one in the sessions list...

Thanks
Allan
