Me neither. :)

Here's a sequence of events that I have found so far. My startup is pretty
fast at home (Yay Linux!), but I'll try this on a slow school machine if I
get a chance, to get more detail on the seq. of events and try different
combinations.
0. There is an xconsole open on the screen while xdm is waiting for login.
1. I login. xconsole is not killed.
2. rxvt pops up with minimal dark-gray decorations.
3. xconsole is iconified (StartIconic in fvwm2rc)
4. modules pop up
Here are all the details I've come up with on this poor unloved window:
- Titlebar has no buttons.
- Dark gray decorations
- mouse bindings (Meta-mouse3) seem to work on unloved window decorations
- key bindings (Meta-F1) fail with focus on the unloved window itself (W
in fvwm2rc)
- Restart fixes all problems
I think this covers all the symptoms. Once again, my fvwm2rc:
