Sorry to be ignorant, but when I right click with my mouse on the root
window (the background of my desktop which is in a VNC viewer), I only
see the standard menu of the GNOME window manager (New Windows, New
Folder, etc.).

Unless this is not called the root window, then what is the root window?

Thanks and sorry to sound ignorant, I am new to FVWM.
