-Xpra needs to connect to the xpra server running inside the docker container.
+In the following solutions, xpra needs to connect to the xpra server running inside the docker container.
 Your options are:
 * using a TCP socket or running an SSH server in the container - neither are very practical
-* using x11docker on host, you can run GUI applications in docker images like in this example:
-{{{x11docker --xpra x11docker/lxde pcmanfm}}} 
 * sharing the xpra socket directory between the host and the container. To do this you have multiple options:
  * bind mount the directory containing the socket ({{{.xpra}}} or {{{/tmp}}} usually)
