Why are you wanting to start X11 in a container?  That would assume you want a container to have direct access to a video card... and containers weren't really meant for that.  I've seen a few people try it over the years with Linux-Vserver (another container technology for Linux) and they were trying to make a multi-seat type experience that never quite worked out.  Luckily systemd has come along and offered multi-seat on physical hardware but I digress.

If you want to access a graphical desktop from a container, no problem.  Use something like x2go, xrdp, vnc, etc.

TYL,
