FC2t3 Problems with X

After installing Xorg to an existing Fedora server, kept uptodate with yum, I have the following problems:

1. When I run a TWM session, the window titles are very fat (tall) and the menu is too skinny to read the items. With an xterm, the fonts are fine.

2. I built & installed the blackbox window manager to my home dir. It runs OK, but one of it's tools, bbpager, shows _very_ narrow and then quits complaining that it can't find the window manager.

I can't find any references to tools for setting up or reconfiguring X-windows. My real goal is to run Blackbox + bbkeys + bbpager. I find that with these tools I can do everything I want in X-windows. I hardly ever run any gui apps except xterm, mozilla, openoffice, gimp, but I rely on multiple desktops & keyboard-switching between screens & windows.

Regards,

Paul
