Is this on a unix (text) console (like linux or sco) or a perfectly hidden
M$Windows based feature?

The terminal like /dev/tty0 must be read as text based terminals. They are
refered to internally as ${TERM} (for it's type) or `tty` for the
devicename.
If you indicate the X11 windows based location to display pictures, then
refer to it as the display like in ${DISPLAY}.

on Unix, the default vncserver (Xvnc) is jet an other display. Not connected
to any of the console displays.
If you mention http://xf4vnc.sourceforge.net/ or
http://www.hexonet.de/software/x0rfbserver/ , then I think a proper
configuration should be able ot get things going, provided you don't
generate confilicts. See what $DISPLAY setting you have inside the display
at the console and try to connect to that display using your vncserver.
If you like multiple $DISPLAY-s using vnc, then look at
http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp for a way to create
VNC sessions (and X11 displays) up to the limit of the hardware...
