You will most likely want Xpm support. Check whether the xpm
library and header files are installed properly.

You need to have /usr/local/bin in your PATH environment variable.
Check your shell setup if it isn't there.
$ echo $PATH
If it isn't add something like
PATH=/usr/locl/bin:"$PATH"
to your shell config file.

Just create a file .xinitrc in your home directory and make it
executable. It should look roughly like this:
--------------------------- ~/.xinitrc ---------------------------
#!/bin/sh
userresources=$HOME/.Xresources
usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysresources=/etc/Xresources
sysmodmap=/etc/Xmodmap
# merge in defaults and keymaps
if [ -f $sysresources ]; then
xrdb -merge $sysresources
fi
if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi
if [ -f $userresources ]; then
xrdb -merge $userresources
fi
if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
xmodmap $usermodmap
fi
# start applications and window manager
xterm &
fvwm
------------------------------ snip ------------------------------
Note that the X server exits when the last command returns. For
this reason, the last command must not be started in the
background.
