Just install vnc-server ("yum install vnc-server" or "yum install vnc*"
to install server and client). Then perform the actions I mentioned
before. As the root user, generate a VNC password:
# vncpasswd
Next, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf. In the "Modules" section, add the line:
Load "vnc"
In the "Screen" section, add:
Option "passwordfile" "/root/.vnc/passwd"
Save and close the file, then restart X by logging out or ye ol'
CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE. Once you see X back up, use your vncviewer program,
put in the password you set up and you should see the GDM login screen.
Away you go!
Yes, away I really went. That worked! Except now I'm faced with
some weird artifacts. Something I didn't see when I was using the
Remote Desktop piece. But I do see it using VNC now. I took a screen
grab of what I see in my vncviewer and you can see it at

Bunch of dots that come and go as I have menus open and close...
