Upon further investigation, I find that torus-trooper uses 800x480 is
told to (by -res), and if I tell my window manager to resize the
window.
The real cause of the problem is that torus-trooper claims to be a
"transient" window (i.e. a popup dialog, not an application window):
WM_TRANSIENT_FOR(WINDOW): window id # 0x0
My window manager makes normal windows full-screen, but gives
transient windows the size they request -- in torus-trooper's case,
this is apparently 640x480 (unless overridden by -res).
So I think the it's wrong for torus-trooper to claim to be a transient
window. I've retitled the bug accordingly.
