I think if you look at the man page for fvwm2 you will find that it reads
it from ~/.fvwm/ unless you set some environment variable.

I really can't help you here. At least with 2.2.4 I know that it works
from both XDM and GDM. I haven't tried XDM lately.

At least with the RH6.1 setp gdm calls the same script as xdm on start-up,
so I can't see why it wouldn't behave the same for me. I don't know
Slackware...
