Try adding:
Style "*" Lenience
to your .fvwm2rc. From the man page:
Lenience instructs fvwm to ignore the convention in the
ICCCM which states that if an application sets the
input field of the wm_hints structure to False, then it
never wants the window manager to give it the input
focus. The only application that I know of which needs
this is sxpm, and that is a silly bug with a trivial
fix and has no overall effect on the program anyway.
Rumor is that some older applications have problems
too.
