> Which program handles your windows-like shortcut desktop icons? I believe it is Nautilus under Red Hat 7.2 running GNOME. Since I posted my original problem report, I have discovered that if I launch Nautilus, open its Preferences dialog, go to the "Windows & Desktop" tab, and uncheck "Use Nautilus to draw the desktop", this problem goes away. I'm not sure this is an FVWM problem. Nautilus appears to have been "stealing" root mouse events. > I can't reproduce this with gmc-4.5.54 when no GnomeButton is specified, > i.e. FVWM gets every root mouse event.
