tldr: /usr/bin/lxterminal --geometry=130x32+100+45 does not give 130 columns.
I am running 64 bit Bookworm on a Pi 4 without Wayland. I want the desktop to display with an lxterminal with a 16 point font and 130 columns. Inside of an lxterminal window, I set 16 as the preferred text size.
I used the usual startup file, which works on 32 bit Bookworm. It is /etc/xdg/autostart/initial-terminal.desktop
It doesn't work; the terminal window only has about 83 columns. It doesn't work from the command line either. If the font size is reduced to 7, then it will give enough columns but the text is too small.
The same 0.4.0 version of /usr/bin/lxterminal is running on on Wayland and non-Wayland, and on 32 bit Bookworm. Only 64 bit non-Wayland has the problem
