FVWM installed but cant make it use my themes

hi! i installed FVWM...
$ pacman -Sy fvwm
I found a nice theme and want to use it, i extract the .fvwm folder to my home and in that dir, its a .fvwm2rc file but it seems that fvwm dont found it because all i get is a black screen and (only with numlock deactivated) the menu with rightclick, and windows have what it seems like a windows border with no buttons, but the theme i download, (and edited the .fvwm2rc file) has a lot of things that doesnt appear in the forums i search and in guides of fvwm and seems that if there's a .fvwm2rc file in the .fvwm dir fvwm will use it...
i too install fvwm-crystal and run with no problem, with its config, but i want fvwm alone
tnx!!

You probably want to pacman fvwm-devel, not fvwm. The fvwm package is very old (but considered stable).
Also, read the fvwm faq, it'll tell you how to redirect output to a log so that you can find out what it's erroring on.

    iPhoto has dissappeared off my laptop. Says it is installed, but cant find it. All photos gone

    Do a Spotlight for "iPhoto.app" and see what yo get. If that fails download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "iPhoto.app" in the file name.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If the application is hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.

  • New software instruments installed but not found to use

    Help please
    I have downloaded 3 new AMG expansion, synth and power packs in garageband 08' running on a g5 with leopard os and though they appear on the HD where they should (HD/library/garageband/instrument library/sampler/sampler instrument) they are not found once inside garageband-new software track instruments.
    Why is this happening and how can newly installed software instruments appear for use inside a track?
    Thanks!

  • Two iPhones, but iTunes makes me use one Yahoo 'contact' account

    I have two iPhones. I use iTunes through a single Windows user account. iTunes lets me have separate sync configurations, e.g. different playlists, different picture options, for most sync options, but it is not allowing me to define separate accounts when syncing contacts. I'm trying to sync Yahoo! contacts. The sync part works fine, but I need to have different accounts configured for each iPhone. When I 'configure' the contacts account information for one iPhone, the contacts account information is changed for the other iPhone.
    Is this a bug? Does someone know how to fix this issue? Please don't tell me to use another Windows user account for the second phone. There's no rhyme or reason why all the sync options but this one are per iPhone, and this one isn't.

    Suppose I authorize another computer to use my current iPhone 5 and sync apps to that computer. Then I get my iPhone 6 and sync my apps to this new phone. Then I change the apple ID on one of the two computers. Would leave the installed apps on both devices? I don't have the new iPhone yet as I'm waiting to get an unlocked GSM version directly from Apple so I can't try this right away.

  • Adobe flash is installed, but firefox won't use it

    I have flash 11.1 installed. It's icon appears in my app list,but firefox' add on list doesn't have it. How do I fix this?

    I have a very similar problem, as do lots of others judging by the number of posts in this forum. I use Flash rarely, so unsure when things went wrong, but I first noticed with Fx 34.0. I tried 34.1 - same. Now on 33.1 - same. Not prepared to try reinstalling any earlier versions as it's so much work (have to uninstall Fx completely, reinstall from backup and set up Fx completely from scratch including all add-ons).
    What I have found is that if I reinstall Flash, then it works the first time Fx is used. Once Fx has been completely closed down, then Flash will not work in Fx again until Flash is again reinstalled. Obviously this is not a working solution.

  • Remote agent installed but cant do manual update

    Hi there
    I have the remote agent on my laptop so my laptop pushes to SW rather than vice versa.  I am fairly sure there is meant to be the open in the systray icon to do a manual push to spiceworks but I cant see it.  All I see is About, Exit and the custom URL.
    Many thanks in advance

    In addition to installing the firmware version 1.1.3 you must purchase a licence to unlock the software upgrade code.

  • Just opened brand new m6-1125dx computer but cant make sytem image discs

    Hello, Brand- new laptop been useing it for a couple hours and i was about to make System image discs but it says: "The backup failed." "The drive cannot find the sector requested. (x8007001B)" This is so disappointing, as it's the first laptop ive bought in 7 yrs. It is a windows 8 and like i've said i just opened and used it a 2-3 hours. The only stuff ive done with it is litterally browse the files and uninstalled only these four programs: Hp simple pass -Wild tangent -Ebay -Kindle I needed this computer rather urgently. I'll be grateful for all you who help.

    @gary_V,
    If you can't get Windows 7 File Recovery to work, you could try using Clonezilla instead.  I've used Clonezilla before for the same purpose and found it to be useful. 
    Here is a guide should you decide to try using Clonezilla.  This will require a bootable media such as a USB flash drive or disk to complete the task.

  • Barry installed but how to start/use???

    Hello!
    Yesterday, I installed the package barry from the AUR, including the necessary dependencies.
    After input of yaourt -S barry the following was read in the pacman.log:
    [2011-04-27 19:10] Running 'pacman -S --asdeps --needed extra/libglademm community/libtar'
    [2011-04-27 19:10] installed libglademm (2.6.7-1)
    [2011-04-27 19:10] installed libtar (1.2.11-2)
    [2011-04-27 19:19] Running 'pacman -U /tmp/yaourt-tmp-maik/PKGDEST.X9k/barry-0.17.1-0-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz'
    [2011-04-27 19:19] installed barry (0.17.1-0)
    In my opinion, compiling and installing itself took a relatively long time. But so be it!
    Then comes the disappointment: How the hell I can start the "BlackBerry-Desktop-Manager-Substitute"?
    No entry is to be found in the Gnome main menu and the Bash reports: command not found.
    No errors were issued during the installation, so what's wrong?

    So, I connected my BlackBerry to the computer, using USB.
    BUT !!! Never mind which command I run, always the following message apears:
    $ bidentify

    libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.
