RE: FVWM: Restart bug?

I don't know if this is the same thing, but after starting FVWM with
startx, once in a while, I just get the background screen, but with
everything frozen (no mouse movement). The only way to get out of it is
to reboot the machine by powering off. I can't kill the X-server.

Hasn't happened for a while. I'm new to FVWM and linux, so I haven't
looked into it very much.

I'm running Slackware linux on a Pentium machine.
