Ever since I upgraded to FreeBSD 2.0R, I no longer get bit mapped
icons when an application mentioned in the .fvwmrc file is
iconified. All I get is a small rectangle containing the name of the
application.

For example, my icon path is

	/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps

and I have a line 

	Icon "xterm"        xterm.xpm

which implies that I'm trying to load

	/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/xterm.xpm

The file exists and is readable. To the best of my knowledge, this is
exactly what I had with 1.1.5.1, and it worked fine. This is not the
only application I have this problem with. Other applications, which
provide their own icon, like GNU Emacs, work just fine.

Am I the only one to have seen this?

Thanks,
Phil
