This problem was affecting me, also.  It seems that gdm kills all
clients immediately upon logging in, which effectively snuffs the x11vnc
server, also.  I have resolved this problem, however, by downloading the
latest stable release (0.9.12) of x11vnc
(http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/) and building it from source. The
latest version of x11vnc attempts to reopen after gdm kills all
connected clients.  The version currently in the repo does not.

It would seem that the gdm option "KillInitClients=false" is no longer
supported, which would have been a viable workaround for this issue.
