the menu is created with a debian menu-methods and the output is the /etc/X11/fvwm/menudefs.hook by default on the debian package (I just checked this myself). 'Read /etc/X11/fvwm/menudefs.hook' will just read the debian menu but not add it to your root menu. So that file only contains the info generated by the debian 'menu' package. you should less that file, but the menu name is /Debian and you can get the menu by doing 'popup /Debian' and there is the menu. You can add that to your root menu to get access to the menu from there. Note you will have to 'Read /etc/X11/fvwm/menudefs.hook' each time you add/remove packages to change the menu you will need to reread that file to get the updated menu. But this method ensures that you only add the menu to your current config and not all fo the other stuff from the default debian config file. jaimos
