You need to configure your X server to run fullscreen at that resolution, so that it will still run 640x480 > (or whatever) in fullscreen mode. Also, you have to make sure that your video system will handle such scaling. Some systems will not scale 4x3 images onto a 16x9 screen very well, if at all. This is a discussion to hold with the distributor of your Linux product. I will state that the Mac video system through XQuartz ran QuakeII at 640x480 very well on my MacBook Pro (2011 edition).
