1) Xvnc doesn't do the same things as Xvfb with the framebuffer.
2) I'm not sure what you mean by 'only one client in the framebuffer'. Do
you mean only one client visible? Or do you want the virtual screen to be
the size of the client's window? In the former case, use the window
manager's iconify function; in the latter, Xvnc can be started with any size
you want (although remember that other windows, and dialogs, will share the
same area).
