I did all you said and reached fvwm2. It was the usual default, with
fvwmpager, clock, xbiff etc on the lower right hand corner. But then if
I click the mouse left or right I get no menue, there is a small window
coming but nothing written in it. Is it some problem with fonts? I had
the same problem with redhat 8.0 using Xwin32.

I appreciate all your help.
Thanks
Ayan
