Can't make XWin on secondary monitor big enough...

I've got a Thinkpad with a 1024x768 LCD screen connected to a 21" CRT
monitor which I've enabled as a secondary monitor at 1600x1200 resolution.
I'd like to run XWin in windowed mode on the secondary monitor and take up
the full resolution. However, try as I might, I can't make XWin any bigger
than 1024x768 on the secondary monitor. Here are the obvious command-lines
I've tried:
XWin -screen 0 1600x1200@2
This results in a 1024x768 windowed XWin on the secondary monitor
XWin -screen 0 @2 -fullscreen
This results in a 1024x768 fullscreen XWin on the primary monitor
Any ideas?
-Tom
