The answer here is that xorg.conf is allowed to be _very_ small. All
the pieces you don't fill in will be filled in from the default
configuration heuristic.
Ideally, though this doesn't work yet, you'd just do:
Section "Device"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
and the rest would get filled in for you.

You should be able to load the vnc module, while still preserving the
rest of the autoconfig logic, with a config file consisting of just:
Section "Module"
Load "vnc"
EndSection
This _should_ work today. Please let me know if it doesn't!
