 Hi

 The extents of the map render scene and the extents of the application
 window are independently of each other. QGIS should remember the window
 size from your previous session (thats what the geometry is for in the
 config file you referred to). Once the window is show the maprender scene
 is set to the spatial extents defined in your .qgs file at a scale
 appropriate to the current window size. If window sizing is still causing
 you an issue, please file a separate bug for that.

 I am moving this bug to milestone 1.0.0. When the upcoming 0.11.0 release
 is out in a week or so, please confirm if this --extents bug still exists
 and if not close this issue.



 Many thanks

 Tim
