I've never tried it, but I'd think that the container could talk to a
graphics card.

You don't need to even have a graphics card to serve X11 via vnc or
nx.  You could probably serve them even if your only server console
was a serial console.  Just run x11vnc or whatever it is called - it
is an X server whose only framebuffer is a VNC session.  I think NX
uses the same server, but I'd have to check.  Of course, you wouldn't
have 3D accelleration with this server, not that you'd be using it
over NX/VNC.
