Hi, sorry if this is a known problem (i'm new on the mailing list).

I have found a strange problem with FvwmPager: When fvwm2 config-file is
read through one of the preprocesser-modules, it will not let you move
around your virtual desktop. I have narrowed the problem down to just two
lines (i call the file `test.fvwm2rc'):

-------------------------------------------------
DeskTopSize 2x2
AddToFunc "InitFunction" "I" Module FvwmPager 0 0
-------------------------------------------------

When i start fvwm2 with

% fvwm2 -f "Read /home/stefh/test.fvwm2rc"

Things work just fine, but when i use

% fvwm2 -f "FvwmM4 /home/stefh/test.fvwm2rc"

or

% fvwm2 -f "FvwmCpp /home/stefh/test.fvwm2rc"

nothing happens when i move the mouse to the edge of the screen. In
fact i need to click in the pager or move a window out of the screen `to
get paging started'

I have Linux 1.3.72, XFree 3.1.2D, fvwm-2.0.42, and i have seen the
problem with fvwm-2.0.40 in Solaris-2.[4-5] and Irix-5.3 too.

Have fun,
