vncviewer for linux text console??

["Beerse, Corné"]

No, I mean NO X11, NO windows, NO gui at the console, just (80*25
characters) text at the console. Then start vncviewer to open a display.
This vncviewer is running on unix (linux) and does not use any external X11
application, not even the X11 server.

For the nerds, it's for my headless server:
- the Xvnc is configured on :0 (it replaces the default Xserver).
- the -init setup as on sourcecodecorner works.
- the .../clases/index.vnc page is adapted to invoke at port 5952

Unfortunatly, the machine is not as headless as expected, the operators need
to see there what is happening at :0 since they want to stick to the kvm
switches and I don't want to configure X11 for the sole purpose of running
vncviewer, it just takes to much resources.
