Theoretically, "Style * NoPPosition" should help. But this is the default
for fvwm-themes, so it is unclear. fvwm 2.5.x has more style options
like FixedPPosition and similar, this may help too.

It is also possible that 2.5.x behaves better regarding Java programs, I
can't say for sure. Maybe others have this Pollo application.

Define all additional style lines in file styles-extra as explained in
fvwm-themes FAQ.
