I guess that answer to that depends on how much you want to hack the xv
code. That is its not fvwm its xv that is your problem. From what I have
seen in the xv source it basically starrts up creating an image window the
size of your screen. Then it loads the image if the image is smaller than
the screen great it makes the window smaller, if its larger then it does a
resize to get it to fit on your screen.
Now depending on which window manager you are using this is a good/bad
feature. If you are using something like mwm that doesn't give you pages
then you'ld be out of luck viewing the rest of your image. As for a fix
to this problem I don`t know, the xv source is not fun to look at.
