Any other sources?!?

you can use x-term:
1. sudo gainroot
2. apt-get update
3. apt-cache search vnc
It is for search package. you will get:

max-n900:~# apt-cache search vnc
vncviewer - A VNC viewer for maemo
x11vnc - VNC server to allow remote access to an existing X session
max-n900:~#

4. apt-get install x11vnc

you can do same if use ssh with root but you should start from 2.

Or you can try to install "pc-connectivity-manager" it will install to you VNC server and some other utilits for connectivity.....
