The crashes without Debian patches are due to a change in xlib that causes fvwm to crash without a fix. In essence you need the patch xthread_fix.patch to keep fvwm2 from crashing with newer versions of xlib. This fix is applied upstream, just not in a release tarball. This fix should have nothing to do with the icon issue you are experiencing. As for the icon issue you are experiencing, I'll see if I can reproduce it. Note that fvwm version 2 is no longer supported upstream, you may want to give fvwm3 a try and see if the issue is still there. jaimos
