What I believe is that the vncviewer is doing is requesting 1024x768 and that is what you'll get. Now, the "interesting" or bad thing is that once you connect at a lower resolution than what you want Xvnc will stick with it no matter what you do from the viewer side. 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.
