yes I had tried these but I think I may have found an actual bug in the
2.3.10 FvwmIconMan module! Here are the symptoms: when you fire up the
x server and then the IconMan module, try mousing-over it. On my display,
when invoked greater than 8 bit, your mouse will start to 'smear' trails
on the X root. Also, as I said in my last post, the colors in the IconMan
text buttons are screwed up and either totally black, or bleached out.

Once we took a 2.3.6 compile of the IconMan and popped it in the module
directory, our 16-bit X sessions look great, with proper coloring in the
IconMan list and no smearing.

anyone else see this?

This was on Solaris 2.7, fvwm 2.3.10, using the VNC X server, Win VNC
client.
