After some experimentation I was able to get KDE to work
with vncserver. The trick? Put "startkde" near the beginning
of xstartup in the ~/.vnc directory.
It's a bit of a change from Gnome 2 but seems to work well
over a VNC connection. At least I don't have to fight KDE
as I did Gnome 3 and Gnome 3's brain damaged fallback.
It does appear that the network config under KDE operates
in a different universe from that of the Gnome version.
I spent many hours getting the two ethernet ports properly
set up.
