  This has been like this since 2.x, and yet to be resolved. Chuck at one
  point claimed he was going to take a look at it, probably on a private
  e-mail. You'll have to full around with the geometry settings until you
  get it "right."

  I've started to fix this several times, but never finished it. The way it
  works is that the pager is initialized for a 3x3 desktop (hardcoded), and
  at that time the scale, if no dimension were given in the geometry
  string, takes effect. Only after this are the real dimensions of the
  desktop gotten from fvwm and the pager redrawn, but within the current
  geometry of the pager, i.e. no attention is given to scale at that point.

  (This was typed without going back and look at the code, but I think it
  is correct.)
