There are a couple of built-in defaults and the ConfigFvwmDefaults
file. Other than that, the man page describes how fvwm looks for
its config file:

       Fvwm first searches for configuration files using the
       command

            Read .fvwm2rc

       This looks for .fvwm2rc in $HOME/.fvwm or $FVWM_USERDIR
       directories, as described in Read below. If this fails,
       fvwm also searches for this file in the $HOME directory or
       for system.fvwm2rc file in the system place. If a config
       uration file is not found, any mouse button or the Help or
       F1 keys on the root window brings up menus and forms that
       can create a starting configuration file.
