I've tried my config at work.
But this is using 2.2.5, a college of mine has compiled it on his home
directory, and my quota doesn't allow me to do it myself right now. And
our sysadmin thinks CDE is good enough for us so...
So Resizeopaque isn't supporten in this version.

But what might be interesting is this:

[GetFontOrFixed]: WARNING -- can't get font -adobe-helvetica-normal-r-*-
*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, trying 'fixed'[FVWM][ProcessNewStyle]:

It seems this font style is missing, and checking whith xfontsel indeed it
is missing.
And I ran xfontsel remote on my Linux system and it also seems to lack
this font style.
I'll try and switch it when I get home. I don't feel like trying to run
the hole wm remote (through cable modem...)
