If you set up NameVirtualHost and VirtualHost propertly Listen or
BindAddress can be set to 127.0.0.1:8080 without problems

Is must be 80 because apache does not handle conections directly, so apache
thinks the connection came to port 80 where TUX is listening on (read TUX
source for more info or Ingo's post in this thread)

Make sure the :80 is present. Apache whitout TUX works with *, _default_,
specifing port, omiting it, etc. but with TUX the only working config is
this (as far as i tried).

Any other combination of options different from what i originally posted
makes virtualhosts stop working on apache (I tried every possible
combination i think)
