I will take a look at this pb but you start your module as > Module FvwmBacker > Module FvwmTheme > Module FvwmWinList > Module FvwmButtons This is not a good idea (as the man pager says).

First you do not always define the bg color in the Colorsets. This causes fvwm to compute the "average" color of your root pixmap. If you do not want this for a colorset define the bg color (this speedup colorset loading). > ModulePath /usr/libexec/fvwm/2.5.7 This line is not useful and cause pb when you upgrade Please replace any line of the form: *FvwmThemes: Colorset by Colorset and be sure you do not start the FvwmTheme module.
