James,

        Sorry, I missed the first part. Are you having problems with 
tightvnc-server?
It has always been much more flexible and provided broader capabilities than
x11vnc. You can check with xdpyinfo over a connection. Some are compile time
options, for others, the vnc package just lacks the capabilities. If you run
into problems with kde4 apps looking garbled and not rendering correctly, then
you might check what is available in x11vnc.
