Hi Simos,
thanks for your great tutorial!
I followed it and almost all runs fine, except that I had to add user
permissions to the gpu device:
lxc config device set <container> <gpu> uid 1000
lxc config device set <container> <gpu> gid 1000
otherwise, even though all X windows were starting correctly, GPU
acceleration was skipped...
Maybe it's because I have an ATI card..
I am running an Ubuntu 16.04 inside an Ubuntu 16.10.
Regards,
Max
