I've never seen any xpm files shipped with Solaris.
Solaris does ship with black and white bitmaps which fvwm2 will use.
Use this command to find them:
find /usr/openwin -name '*.xbm'
The fvwm2 package contains a load of icons, there just not installed
(yet). Most of them are in the "icons" directory of the source
distribution.
Even better, you probably want to check out:

Caution, second-hand information follows:
cd /etc/rc2.d
mkdir tmp
mv S99dtlogin tmp
