You have compiled fvwm with the --enable-multibyte option. That is the difference. This option should be selected only if you use a true multibyte language (e.g., a CJK language). These type of pbs has been fixed in the 2.5.x series (*unstable* series). You probably use a locale with a charset which is not "iso8859-1" and your fonts 7x14 and 6x10 are aliases to some fonts with such a charset. Moreover, your locale X config reject the "iso8859-1" charset as an acceptable charset for your locale. With "--enable-multibyte" you should replace 7x14 by: -*-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-* and 6x10 by: -*-fixed-medium-r-normal--10-* Regards, Olivier PS: no valid e-mail address, maybe the sender read the archives -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
