This is not what you want to hear, but from my experience, although you   
will find several ways to use these unresizable windows (for example   
using a virtual desktop larger than your real screen resolution) ,   
nothing appears to be really useable in a daily work.
The real solution is to run X in a sufficient resolution , for example   
800x600 but 1024x768 is better.

Objet: Windows too big!

Ever since I first installed the XFree86 system I've been having a
problem with my programs going off the screen... their windows are too
large, so they go off the desktop and onto the next one, or the portion
that goes off the screen is simply lost (which is what happens under
KDE). So far the only fix I've found is to press the maximize button or
simply resize the window by hand, except that some windows don't resize
the text with the window, so you end up with a smaller window and a part
of your application cut off.

Is there anything I can tweak that will allow me to confine the
application windows to the current desktop?
