I was curious as to what the changes were in fvwm2 over fvwm1.x so I am trying to install fvwm2.0.40 on my system. I am
currently running Linux1.2.13 with XFree86 3.1.1 and using gcc 2.6.3. Everything compiles fine except for the main fvwm2
module where I am getting the following message in the link stage:

gcc -o fvwm2 -O2 -m486 -ansi -L/usr/X11R6/lib add_window.o bindings.o borders.o builtins.o colormaps.o
colors.o complex.o decorations.o events.o focus.o functions.o fvwm.o icons.o menus.o
    misc.o module.o move.o placement.o read.o resize.o style.o virtual.o windows.o -lXpm
 -lXExExt -lXext -lX11 ../libs/libfvwm2.a
GetFont.o(.text+0x8f): undefined reference to `XLoadQueryFont'
GetFont.o(.text+0xb3): undefined reference to `XLoadQueryFont'
make: *** [fvwm2] Error 1

I did an nm on libX11.a and found that it does indeed have a symbol for XLoadQueryFont in its index. I left configure.h to be
the default values except I set MODALITY_IS_EVIL. I just wanted to know if anyone else had a similar problem. Thanks.

coredump:/usr/X11R6/lib# nm --print-armap libX11.a | grep XLoadQueryFont
_XLoadQueryFont in Font.o
00000000 T _XLoadQueryFont
         U _XLoadQueryFont
         U _XLoadQueryFont
