I was inspired by screenshots of Gulivert and Arsen (at lynucs.org) but almost all I made by myself. FVWM configuration isn't very hard. My old screenshots are HERE.

You say you had to disable XV to get xcompmgr working. Did you know that KDE 3.4 comes with it's own composite manager?
Just click on the window menu and go to Configure Window Behaviour -> Translucency to activate and configure it. It won't start it up until your next login so just run "kompmgr" from the run box.

Yeah just alias xcompmgr and kompmgr for me - You still have to disable XV to get proper video -- unless you tell me kompmgr can be disabled for a window/role combo however I don't think so
