I'm not sure, but it looks like you don't have X running. If that is the case, then the simplest way of doing it is putting "exec fvwm2" in ~/.xinitrc (`echo "exec fvwm2" > ~/.xinitrc), then execute startx as user. That should bring up fvwm2 when X starts. Hope that helps. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
