Hello Jon, hello Ville,

Thank you, that did the trick ( cvsmodule = ""; in cvsgraph.conf).
Ville, I'd suggest to add a note to the following INSTALL section such as:

6) CvsGraph <http://www.akhphd.au.dk/~bertho/cvsgraph/> can be used with
    this version of CVSweb.  See the $allow_cvsgraph and $cvsgraph_config
    configuration variables in cvsweb.conf.  cvsweb.cgi will override 
some of the settings in the cvsgraph configuration file with command 
line options, the following in particular: map_branch_href, map_rev_href 
and map_diff_href so you won't have to tweak them for CVSweb. However, 
leave the  'cvsmodule = "";' entry in cvsgraph.conf empty! Note (and
    install) also the cvsgraph.png icon in the icons/ directory.

Thanks a lot, great tool, love it, thanks for 3.0.0.

Gernot
