Yes, I do. Depending on how you start fvwm, if your method (typically
via startx, xdm) uses ~/.xsession, I used to have the line:

rox -p mypinboard &

"mypinboard" is just a name of a pinboard -- you can define as many as
you like.

Or, if that's not an option, add a line to your StartFunction:

+ I Exec exec rox -p mypinboard

Then you can start dragging stuff around. One thing I did not mention
to you before, was the fact that there is also an Fvwm module called
'FvwmDragWell' which can provide XDnD support, if you so wish. Haven't
used it in ages, though.
