It sound to me like your X server isn't set up to handle 640x480.
Look in the file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 for the "Screens" section.
You should find something like the following. Of course, your
video card and monitor is probably different but it be similar...
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "RIVA TNT2"
Monitor "HWP"
DefaultDepth 16
Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768"
Modes "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
The symptom that you describe is roughly the same thing that
I get when the Modes line for 640x480 is missing. If its missing
from your XF86Config-4 then add it, restart your X server, and
try the app again. This would definitely cause what you're seeing.
