reading through the different "workarounds" x11vnc is the best. I can leave compiz turned on and still use vnc to connect ot the machine. Basically you turn off vino (Systems>Preferences>Remote Desktop uncheck sharing) and then I added x11vnc --noxdamage --passwd XXX -forever -shared -alwaysshared to my session. I don't know if shared and alwaysshared are needed options but they seem to make sense. And so far I don't see much of a performance hit with the --noxdamage turned on.
