Thank you. Added.

First, main difference - it is not DE related, minimum dependencies. Second...
so, I'm not use Gnome at all and even wasn't try vino at all :(

But x11vnc provide several advantages:
1) It's easy to start (It was first really working solutions, what I found when
search how get access to running X11 session at home computer from work, when
only SSH was available)
2) It is uses several useful patches like TurboVNC (VNC is very slow protocol,
so, any speed improvements is highly appreciated), tightvnc-filetransfer, lzo
and others.(In reply to comment #1)
3) It can be used to provide access not only first running X11 session, but
really to any (to which auth files you can get access)
4) It can provide access even before X11 session starts, to GDM/KDM/XDM/CDE
login screen for example (

It would be great, If you can try and compare its comprehensive.
