I have been experimenting with puppy linux and I must confess I like FVWM95 better than fluxbox , so I apt-get FVWM95 and with puppy's configuration as template I manage to configure my new window manager and I love it .only problem is that the application that shows conection , memory, and such ( I think is called the fluxter) places itself randomlly on the uper left corner and I cant get rid of it it keeps comming back, I tried the fluxterbb file and a number of files mentioned in the forums but the thing just won't go away .
Does anybody Know how ?.

The dockapps are started from /usr/bin/enhance, and enhance is started from /home/dsl/.xinitrc

if all else fails, type:sudo killall fluxter

I got problems with my config. Please do include your puppy fvwm95rc too, if it's ok with you.

I need to convert my friends to linux. So, it's nice to make it look like windows. That's it.

in the usr/local/lib/x11/mini-icons file there is an icon that corresponds with that logo you can change it with a paint program ie the gimp.

you guys need to investigate Mezzo from SymphonyOS. It is revolutionary.
