This is slightly OT. You have a couple of choices :
1. Bind a key to maximize your current window. Google search gave me
http://infinity-unbound.blogspot.com/2008/01/how-to-make-your-window-full-screen-in_15.html
2. Run X without a window manager. You'd want to do this if you are
running your application on multiple nodes. When the app runs, the
reshape callback will not be called. Use glutGet to get the window &
height and move the resize code into the display func. Plus enable the
idle callback to refresh the display in a loop. This is more of a
hack, but it works.
If you're running a cluster aware application, have a look at
12ClusterServerX.cpp as well.
Good luck
