SimpleQuestion: How to remove the pager withTheclock&mail
at the beginning of the startup of fvwm ?
and have a smaller pager with only the 4 or 6 desk (I have a 2*2 for one desk)

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Patrick

Well, you’re probably referring to FvwmTaskBar (as that’s the only thing that has both a clock and a mail indicator in it by default) in which case you’ll have something that looks like this in your StartFunction, defined in your fvwm config file:

+ I Module FvwmTaskBar

Should you see such a line, comment it out.

Look at the ‘DesktopSize’ command, as well as the way in which you invoke your FvwmPager.

Assuming FvwmTaskBar is what you’re talking about, commenting out this line, should help.

Are they desks, or pages? You want two desks of two pages perhaps?

DesktopSize 2x2

… that command tells FVWM how many pages there will be in a desk. As to how you have more than one desk (if that’s what you also want) then one way you can do that is to give them a name, as in the following commands:

DestopName 0 Main DesktopName 1 Apps

Depending on how your FvwmPager is setup, that should then display both desks.

[… snip rest of your config — there was no need for you to repost it. In future, if you could upload any lengthy documents like that to a webserver of some kind, that would be more preferrable…]
