Actually, it is possible to run VNC on a Qube or RaQ.  You just need to install 
the various X RPMs, and fonts, and start it up.   It does not need a video 
card.  We needed this so we could install Oracle, which uses a Java installer 
that demands a local X connection (although we could have specified another 
display.)
