how do you get this output?

xrandr only shows

Screen 0: minimum 32 x 32, current 1024 x 768, maximum 32768 x 32768
VNC-0 connected primary 1024x768+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1600x1200     60.00 +
   1920x1200     60.00

   1680x1050     60.00

   1280x720      60.00
   1024x768      60.00*
   800x600       60.00
   640x480       60.00

/etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service
has this
ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 1600x1200

and ~/.vnc/config
has this
geometry=1600x1200

and still connected with 1024x768 ... even when setting SELINUX to 
permissive
why?

the goal is either 1600x1200 or 1280x1024, the default 1024x768 is too small

Thanks,
Walter
