I found this file - and puh, what a amount of colors!
The only file mentioned in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config.eg or
/etc/X11/XF86Config is rgb (not the txt version)

"locate" is indeed my best friend, wouldn't know what to do without this tool.


How do I set other parameters like a smaller window width on a Xterm startup? -
the XF86Config file doesn't seem to control that. I looked at the fvwm2 config
files and searched for everything containing a "width" or a "height" but found
nothing responsable for these settings.

Additionally I replaced twm with fvwm2 in the VNC ~/xstartup script and
everytime now VNC is launched with "vncserver" on the terminal before starting
X11, the program parsing the fvwm2 configuration file seems to go into a
endless loop and I have to Crtl+c to get a prompt again.

Would be awful nice if someone would help with this.
