In that case you need to tell CDE to log out with the command.
/usr/dt/bin/dtaction ExitSession

At least that's how it works on HP-UX...

You'll probably want this to your .Xdefaults, which was suggested by
someone on this list:
*waitWmTimeout: 1

Also, to make it easier to debug fvwm I have one line script:
#!/bin/csh
exec /usr/local/X11/bin/fvwm2 >&$HOME/.fvwm2log

And I set the wmStartupCommand to that script, otherwise the std/err out is
lost from fvwm.

later,
jim
