Your .Xauthority seems to be misconfigured (probably owned by root).
Please ensure that this file is owned by regular user and has 0600
permissions.

Your xstartup script tries to execute non-installed 'gnome-session'.
Try replacing 'gnome-session' with '/etc/X11/Xsession', like this:
=== cut ===
#!/bin/sh
xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
/etc/X11/Xsession
=== cut ===
And you'll probably want to replace vnc4server with something modern,
like tightvncserver.
