I think if you try and run a local session and vnc session with both using 
gnome desktop there are issues with it. But I always run the vnc session 
with the xfce desktop and never had a problem. I've also had no problem 
running xfce locally with a vnc xfce session. Seems gnome is doing 
something with dbus, and causes a conflict with both sessions trying to 
use the same dbus settings??
