So....  Try disconnecting, restart the server, and then use "vncviewer -geometry
1600x1200 hostname:1" to connect.

In other words, once you connect with a given resolution you're stuck to it on
subsequent connections.  :-(

I was surprised to discover that xrandr works with Xvnc. I had initially started the vnc server at 1024x768 as a convenient default. But checking with xrandr showed that long list of options and changing the mode worked and is persistent on future connections. I use Remmina, but I expect vncviewer would work the same. If not, Remmina works well and handles a wide variety of protocols and connection options.
