I didn't even have gtk-vnc loaded, and it seems to have no effect,
presumable because the command line run uses SDL.
Ex: qemu-kvm -m 1200 -std-vga -hda fc11beta.img
or similar. I played with vnc a few months ago, and it made no
difference. I would really prefer to avoid having the extra layer if I
can avoid it.
