I experience that on my installation the xpos and ypos keywords have no effect on the windows procedure.

works ok for me. Apparently fvwm2 is not very much wxWidgets/GTK compatible (ggogled a bit). I bet the X window (gdl -X) works OK.

... but of course gdl -X does have its own defects (e.g. no window larger than the screen)

On my laptop running U22.04 I am on xfce4 and I have no problem in X11 or WsWidgets drivers to have the
window, xpos=..., ypos=... exactly where they should be located !

shall we close this issue, and mention that fvwm2 (and probably fvwm, and probably all "old, but fast and reliable" WMs) may not be exactly, uh..., recommended?

Just for completeness.

I commented following lines in my .fvwm2rc and now the xpos and ypos keywords work fine and everything else is as it was before.
I am happy!
