You might want to look at FvwmKb or Xkb for doing keymap control in
fvwm. FvwmKb is found at http://members.linuxstart.com/~sparrow/ and I
don't have anything regarding Xkb.

I don't understand what kikbd does. Someone else here with experience
in i18n might be able to help you better, but in case no one pipes up,
is kikbd X-aware or is it specific to a particular shell instance? It
might be better to do something like:

if [ $DISPLAY ]; then
    kikbd
fi

or something like that, in your .login. If it's meant to be started at
the beginning of your X session, add it to your fvwm InitFunction (see
the manpage on InitFunction and on AddToFunc). Basically, you just
need to:

AddToFunc "InitFunction" I Exec kikbd

Maybe this is helpful.
