Yes, I've checked that x11vnc isn't good choice. I want discuss idea
that Xvnc won't be big single binary package like now. They're many ways
how it could be done and I want find the best way (performance and
maintaining aspects). I think, vncserver isn't xserver but only
"moderator" between vncviewer and xserver (virtual or psychical)
