If you are trying to use the -r and -s options to set your screen size, these 
are no longer functional (although the documentation appears not to have kept 
up with the program code on this).

Instead there is a new (also undocumented) option -g or --geometry which takes 
an argument of the form XxY, where X is the desired width in pixels, Y is the 
desired height in pixels, and x is a literal letter x.

I hope this helps.
