Interesting history of problems, but it appears to work in general, at least for me: http://people.canonical.com/~bryce/Photos/vnc_unity.jpg That is with two Intel graphics machines running natty, both running unity (also tested unity+metacity and metacity+metacity) with one vnc'd to another over a wireless network. With unity on, display updates seem rather slow but it's still basically usable. Googling around, I found that at one point NVIDIA had to put out a fix (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2255561). Pitti had mentioned a couple months ago that this is an -fglrx specific issue, which well could me; if that can be confirmed, we could just have Alberto add it to the AMD bug escalation list for 12.04.
