I agree x2go is the easiest and best method to run an X desktop in a Linux
container. This is all I had to do to set up a GUI desktop for my lxc and
openvz containers:

server side (lxc container for you):
    add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/stable
    apt-get update
    apt-get install xfce4
    apt-get install x2goserver*

  client-side (your Ubuntu Host)
    add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/stable
    apt-get update
    apt-get install x2goclient
