Some apps that use the NCurses library do not properly resize if one resizes the virtual console in which they are opened. At the moment, the apps that display this behavior include 'alsamixer' and 'nano'. Alsamixer specifically will resize if one resizes the console-window before opening the application, though later attempts at resizing will still fail. This seems to be an Arch specific problem, as I did not encounter this in other distros.
