You could try setting the screen geometry or colors to a value to see if it
connects.
I vaguely recall having problems connecting also. I think it worked when I
specified -u and a valid username. It still went to the login screen and
from there I just changed to username and logged in. It's a bit hazy but I
think without specifying a user it wouldn't show up. Not sure why. Sorry I
am not near a terminal to test it out.
Hope it gives you something to work with.
