NX supports RANDR starting from the 1.5.0. It doesn't auto-resize
because, on reconnection, it restores the session at the same size
as when the session was disconnected.

It should be trivial to add an "Auto" option in the client geometry
settings and let the agent choose the optimal size of the desktop
based on the size of the remote display. This, by the way, is the
behaviour of nxagent when it is started on the command line with-
out specifying a desktop geometry.

I confirm that the DPI doesn't matter.

The fact that the "resume" button is greyed out is an indication
that the server reported to the client that the session can't be
reconnected. Just for my personal information, does the same problem
show with the NoMachine nxserver?
