You can clone his repository at https://github.com/ustuehler/lxc-desktop/
and then type "git log" in there. You will be able to see the email address,
since it was used for the commits.

[lxc-users] ustuehler's lxc-desktop package

I'd seen that same github on the lxc-desktop by Uwe Stuehler and tried to
figure out how to contact him but had no luck (his email isn't on his
github page).

So I added some info to one of my "issues" I'd created on Uwe's GitHub:
https://github.com/ustuehler/lxc-desktop/issues/12

Assuming what I posted there solves the sticking points he had around
a *pre-start
hook for LXD* to set audio/video devices from the Host into the containers
then that would only leave the effort of creating an lxd template for it
which I don't have any experience with so not sure of how much work that
would be.

[lxc-users] ustuehler's lxc-desktop package

[Dan Kegel]

Hey all,
I haven't checked lately, but last I looked, some elbow grease was
required to run an X server inside a container.
I just ran across https://github.com/ustuehler/lxc-desktop
which has the comment "I wonder if it would be possible to polish and
contribute this functionality to the lxc-templates package. The really
important bit is simply the device cloning script which runs at
container startup. While on the far end of my todo list now, I would
happily join in the effort. :)"

There's even an issue in his issue tracker,
https://github.com/ustuehler/lxc-desktop/issues/8
suggesting he contact this list.
(And another issue asking if he could get it working with lxd.)

Has anyone had a look to see if this could be folded in to lxc/lxd
somehow to reduce the pain of getting
X servers running inside containers?
