It is my understanding that the -geometry _when used on the command line_ with the vncserver _will_ change the outgoing appearance for the connecting vncviewer. I believe the default if you do nothing is to be 1024x768 which when viewed on a vncserver with 1280x1024 does give the black border effect. If I start with vncserver :# -geometry 1280x1024 and then my 1280x1024 viewer is full screen, in fact a bit larger and adds in scroll bars. Qgh, I believe you are modifying the -geometry in the wrong place. In the file xstartup I think you are modifying only the geometry for the xterms if I recall your earlier posts correctly. Try using it on the command line when you start the server. Also I suggest that you do use :1 or some number other than :0, I believe that the documentation implies that :0 has some special properties, but I can't find the reference just now.
