I think you need to check the xstartup file located under the .vnc
directory.  In there you can set what window manager you want the vnc
session to use.

You should be able to use the following in that file to get the your
default window manager running under vnc.

exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc


Try to reinstall them.
