Hi Guys,
sorry to bug on this again, but i am not able to get
through it.

I have compiled new version 2.3.28, with Xpm libraries
included :-))
(it complained at icons.c for color_reduced_pixmap not
found, i don't know and just commented the line */

and put the line (in .fvwm2rc)
Style Netscape* Icon
/tmp/icons/nscape.xpm,IconOverride

here is the error i got in fvwm_log file
[FVWM][GetXPMFile]: <<ERROR>> XpmReadFileToXpmImage
failed, pixmap /tmp/icons/nscape.xpm, rc -1
[FVWM][GetXPMFile]: <<ERROR>> XpmReadFileToXpmImage
failed, pixmap /tmp/icons/nscape.xpm, rc -1

any suggestion ?

thanks.
