      You need to check the options in whatever app you are connecting with, and make sure that you have the window size set for "fit to window" or whatever the right option is. I use Pyhoca-GUI and don't have to mess with that setting.

      Strangely enough, it is working now.

      COMPUTERS!

              I am running the mint instance on XS7, and I wonder if that could be part of my issue.

              Not realistically, no.

                If I don't want separate sessions I usually use nomachine. If I want separate sessions (like a terminal server/RDS) I use x2go.

                We also use exceed at work for X11 forwarding, and mixes opengl in there somehow for 3d modeling.

                  We use X2Go to make what are essentially terminal servers. Works really well.

                    Now that the window seems to be working, it's working well for me.

                    Though it has created a lot more questions for me in the Linux world.

                        Linux Mint is a full distro, like CentOS, Fedora, OpenSuse Leap, Ubuntu, etc. It is a distro that focuses on desktop usage rather than server or mixed. But it is a distro. The desktop of Mint is Cinnamon, Mate, LXDE, etc.

                        How does a distro "focus on desktop usage", exactly?

                        Well, for example, it includes an office suite instead of a NoSQL database. It has a desktop instead of only a command line. Testing is done of desktop usage rather than server usage.

                        How do you test a limo differently from a tractor trailer?
