 We've had enough trouble with Xephyr. This patch replaces it with VNC.

 Uses VNC4 on Debian (derivatives), TigerVNC on Fedora (derivatives). The
 latter one has been fixed upstream (already in F11+F12) w.r.t. the keymap
 bug.

 Tested on:
 - Debian squeeze (for several months)
 - Ubuntu Intrepid
 - Ubuntu Jaunty
 - Fedora 12
