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.
