I disagree with the statement that fvwm-2.0.45 is pretty stable. I'm still
using fvwm 1.x because of a bug in the FvwmButtons module. I've written to the
list before about this, and got no response, other than from other people with
the same problem. The problem is that I can't get FvwmButtons to appear, quite
a fundamental problem with fvwm I would say. The only advice I've been able to
get is use the FvwmButtons module from 2.0.41. Unfortunately, this didn't work
for me, so I'm still using fvwm 1.x.
