This is only partly correct. fvwm2 can use (almost) any key combination you
like to switch desks (and to perform other tasks as well, for that matter)
- I'm using Meta+cursor, for example. It's all a matter of setting up the
keybindings. I'm not quite sure where the related configuration file is in a
default RHL 5.1 setup, but I'd suspect it to be in /etc/X11/afterstep
or /etc/X11/fvwm2. man fvwm2 for more informations on keybindings within fvwm2.

Ciao,

Thomas
