This does not work, at least not for me. When I have only such a line, all
is okay (hey, really nice such a xdm window under svgalib ;)
But when I have both:
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -bpp 16
:1 local /usr/X11R6/bin/Xvnc :1 -query localhost -fp tcp/localhost:7100
I get strange behaviour: more than one xdm-shadow will run, they will kill
themself, change console, etc...
Xvnc gives me this with option -query localhost:
XDMCP fatal error: Session declined No valid address
What does this mean?
And, at last, /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers is a conf file from xbase ;)

I don't get it working properly :(

This is on the top of my todo list. Christoph made the package, ahem, a
little quick. Also will my next release be able to read gziped fonts, and
I'll include a somewhat unstable svgaviewer. I also make three packages,
splitting the viewer from the server (I made them Conflict and Replace vnc,
is this okay?)

Okay, do you saw more inconsistencies? What is your wishlist of options?
Thank you,
