Do you set environment variables in your .xsession (or .xinitrc depending
on your OS distrubution)?
LANG should be set to something like: zh_CN (or something like that...)

Or if you use gdm (GNOME's version of xdm), you should have a menu to
choose the session language.

I think it looks like this could be the problem.
Also, do you get any error messages from fvwm?
