This is probably related to #21, follow up of https://github.com/marbetschar/tins/issues/16

gnome-session --session=pantheon refuses to start and produces the following eror:

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install & Start Tins (see README)
  2. Click "+ Add Container..." in the lower left corner
  3. Set Name: elementary, Type: elementary, Version: hera - click "Next"
  4. Set Enable Desktop Support and select stable - click "Apply"
  5. Wait until the container is setup
  6. In Tins, click on the Desktop Icon of the container - this opens a new window, which provides the X11 Server to the container
  7. Open Terminal on Host and execute: lxc exec elementary -- su --login <username> --command "gnome-session --session=pantheon --debug" (where <username> is the same you use on your host)
