My wild guess is, there is no "(m)getty"s prepared in tty. Thus you
only left with xdm/kdm/gdm...but that's assuming you're inside
runlevel 5 (or in some distros, runlevel 2 or 3), which boots straight
to X.

So, my advice is: kindly check /etc/inittab

PS: regarding the VNC server listening, try to connect to it using VNC
client. (hopefully I understand your statements correctly)
