Ok, so I am guilty of skipping 5, 6 & 7, and just now getting around to really 
playing with F8. :)

Any suggestions (or URLs) on how to get fvwm into and working with the gdm 
session menu, as gdm does not default to having fvwm listed along with Gnome 
and kde?
Making that happen and getting it working with screen saver/locker was the 
trouble I had when I compiled from source in FC3, and why I gave up on using 
it with FC.
