vino is working for me almost as i expect it. The configuration tool
doesn't catch the fact that i have multiple X servers running locally
and always wants to tell me
localhost:0 is the display to connect to with the client, even though
its not... i need to file that.

I can start a gnome desktop
start vino and then run a vncviewer from the same gnome desktop...and
and enjoy staring into infinity. It helps to be on drugs when you do
this for best effect.

I can start a gnome desktop
start a second gnome desktop on the same server using gdmflexiserver
start vino on the second gnome desktop
jump back to the first desktop and use vncviewer there and get a very
inefficient
way of simulating  gdmflexiserver -n  

I can start a gnome desktop
start vino 
and then on the other machine on the lan I can connect via vncviewer
as long as my firewall is open enough to allow it.

I can't reproduce the problems you are having.
