This is what I was doing until now... I now added "fvwm2" to the last line of my .xinitrc and exited fvwm... and a new instance started up. Now Mozilla/Firebird disappear more frequently than before... and even when they do go full screen they still have the border and titlebar. > About layer.

This helped fix the problems of gkrellm staying on top of other full screened applications. [ie., tvtime now runs on Layer 4 in windowed mode, and Layer 6 in full screen.] But is it really necessary to add that line because everything was working fine on 2.5.7 even without that extra line. Since this is "expected behavior" wouldn't it be better if it was turned on by default ?(ie., not having to turn it on in the config.
