Since XSESSION and DISPLAY are set, I'm not surprized you have trouble starting a second Xserver for GNOME. Running two GNOME sessions at once is problematic. You might want to use KDE, WindowMaker, or somother windowmanager on the second display instead. Search the archives for GNOME and VNC problems for more info.

That seams odd. xinit should set DISPLAY correctly. You might try a custom xinitrc file (~/.xinitrc) that checks for 1st or 2nd xserver and changes behavior. Or just a script that starts the server, sets DISPLAY, starts a termional, and a window manager.
