You'll also want to change DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER="yes" to DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER="no" It's not critical, but error messages will be generated that might cause concern for someone else looking through the system logs. You didn't mention it, but did you try YaST -> Network Services -> Remote Administration to get VNC set up? I would hope that would have done most/all of the things you discovered necessary.
