How about the next configuration, who fills out the details?
- Exchange the default Xserver with Xvnc so Xvnc runs on localhost:0.0. This
is quite easy: locate from where X11 is started and just replace the X
command with X11 and the prefered security options. (see `Xvnc --help` for a
list).
- run vncviewer on the local console. This can be the hard part but do you
realy need it? What's wrong with a text console?
- run your vncviewer to access the server you like.
