This is one of those cases where you can either insist to do it
EXACTLY like you wanted (in this case, via vnc client), or try the
many other suggestions that have been
tested-to-work-by-others-and-easy-to-setup. The suggestions so far was
x2go, or an .xstartup that would start xterm and a window manager.

There's also a much easier method not mentioned eaerlier, which would
work just fine if just want to use virt-manager: ssh X forwarding.

Also, have you read
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Virtualization_Administration_Guide/chap-Virtualization_Administration_Guide-Remote_management_of_virtualized_guests.html
? IIRC you should be able to run virt-manager on any workstation, and
have it connect-and-handle-all-the-console-display-forwarding via ssh.
