Ubuntu no longer includes xvncviewer, using vinagre by default instead. The VNC plugin at /usr/share/service-discovery-applet/plugins/xvncviewer.py should be modified to invoke vinagre. At a quick glance, changing:

 cmdline = ["/usr/share/service-discovery-applet/tools//exec_wrapper", "xvncviewer", "-xrm", "*passwordDialog:true", hostname ]

to

 cmdline = ["/usr/share/service-discovery-applet/tools//exec_wrapper", "vinagre", hostname+":"+port ]

I haven't checked it, yet, but will soon. This is similar to the posted patch, but replaces xvncviewer with vinagre, and passes the connection string as "hostname:port" as required.
