Ah, it was fallback mode from SLiM. When I connected through GDM3
selecting a GNOME session, it worked fine.

Interestingly, there are two in this new scenario where VPN works:
Session3:
unix-user = '0'
realname = 'root'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = FALSE
x11-display = ''
x11-display-device = ''
display-device = '/dev/pts/1'
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2011-11-09T21:42:12.961848Z'
login-session-id = '4294967295'
Session2:
unix-user = '1000'
realname = 'Julian Gilbey'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = 'x11'
active = TRUE
x11-display = ':0'
x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
display-device = ''
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2011-11-09T21:38:25.026720Z'
login-session-id = '4294967295'

In the current setup, yes I can.
So it seems to work - thank you!
Now I just have to figure out how to get the same thing to work in
XFCE :-)
This may mean that this bug can be closed - thanks!
