When starting qemu can I set the geometry option for the vnc server it

or what can I do to make the vnclient I use, choose a specific resolution?
The Qemu VNC resolution is whatever is the resolution of the (virtual)
monitor
attached to the (virtual) display adapter in the virtual machine. If the OS
on the virtual machine chooses a different resolution (such as VGA
resolution)
according to its own settings and tools, this will carry through to the VNC
resolution .
So to get a desired resolution, you need to look at options describing the
(virtual) display device and options that can be set in the guest OS,
such as
the Linux bootstrap options setting the resolution of the text tty's and/or
any loaded graphics software .
I am unsure which qemu options control the (virtual) monitor capabilities
reported to the Guest (virtual) machine via mechanisms such as (virtual)
display DDC data values .
I am running a linux vm on a baremetal linux, no windows involved.
Enjoy
