No clue what's happening with your CentOS 6 machine. CentOS 6 was actively used in multiple large TurboVNC installations until it became EOL, and no one ever reported any problems like this during the years in which it was used. I personally used CentOS 6 on my primary development machine, which has an nVidia GPU, until a couple of years ago. I still have a CentOS 6 machine with an AMD GPU that I use for VirtualGL testing (because the old AMD Catalyst drivers won't run on any newer O/S.) I've never had any problems using GNOME 2 with TurboVNC on any of those machines.
Referring to our support policy: https://turbovnc.org/Documentation/OSSupport I no longer provide free support for CentOS 6, since it is no longer receiving public updates. I still test that operating system, so it *should* work, but if it doesn't, someone else will have to figure out why or pay for my labor to figure that out. I do recommend that you migrate to the vault.centos.org repository URLs so you can do a 'yum update' and install the latest TurboVNC Server on that machine. Then you should 'rm ~/.vnc/xstartup.turbovnc' and let the server re-create it. Perhaps dbus-launch on CentOS 6 doesn't like --exit-with-x11. You might try --exit-with-session instead.
