Thanks for the response, LGC.

Here is my config line:

ExecStart=/sbin/runuser -l mike -c "/usr/bin/vncserver %i -geometry 
1670x1020 -name f16"

Did:
     systemctl stop vncserver@:1.service
     systemctl daemon-reload
     systemctl start vncserver@:1.service

which throws no errors, starts, and still gives a small screen.

Anything obvious to you?  Oblivious to me ;/
