slapt-get --search fvwm
fvwm-2.4.20-x86_64-1 [inst=no]: fvwm (a small and fast virtual window manager for X)
You can install it with gslapt or slapt-get.

Hey, great. I couldn't start my computer right now.
Useful isn't it?

Probably it just lacks the optical tweaks that Austrumi may has done? Or the GDM entry? :?:

Do a search in the wiki for "gdm entry" and you'll find a page for fluxbox. It should be the same for fvwm

you'll need to help yourself with that one.

xfce uses xfwm, not fvwm.
