Description of problem:
When connecting to anaconda installer over VNC, the anaconda window is extremely small. It's possible to use it (the main hub and all the panes are scrollable), but it's very uncomfortable


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-18.12-1.fc18
Fedora 18 Beta TC1 x86_64 KDE spin


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run anaconda -T
2. choose VNC mode
3. connect to the VNC session
  
Actual results:
Anaconda window is placed in top-left corner and is very small


Expected results:
The window has some reasonable size, at least so that the main hub does not display scrollbars.


Additional info:
Note that the size of the vncviewer window on the screenshot is it's default size, I didn't resize it.

Not sure why it looks like that in this mode, but when starting the installer normally over VNC (that is booting non-live media and passing the vnc option) it looks normal.

This looks specific to your environment.  Does it do the same from a live gnome image?
