How can I screen share and use Pages?

Via Remote Management (VNC) I am connecting to a virtual display on a Mac running Lion. VNC is working as expected, except Pages '09 documents show up blank. If, however VNC connects to the Mac and controls the physical display then Pages documents show up as expected.

Is it possible to use Pages using a virtual display over VNC?

VNC Clients that I've tested are: TightVNC & RealVNC running on Windows, or Apple's Screen Sharing app on Lion.

Solution 1:

Excuse the large picture, but I have used Screen Sharing to share the screen of an iMac running Lion and Pages '09 over the virtual display, and it works just fine. I suspect that the assumed problem of with pages inability to work over a virtual VNC connection is not accurate, but there is something more local to your machine that needs attention.
