Hmmmm.... something still not right.... I've put together a minimal
.fvwm2rc to show what I'm doing. Anything standout as being obsolete or
non-standard? I've been trying to not get *too* crazy with things ( only
a taskbar and pager )
I'm still getting the foreground text on the clock to be static at black,
so with my background at black, no clock appears.
Any help is appreciatiated....
Thanks,
Matt
