Display variable should be set to address of host (Windows) computer.
When using boot2docker image, new VirtualBox Host-Only Network will be created. In it, host computer will probably have address 192.168.99.1, so DISPLAY should be set to 192.168.99.1:0.0
If that won't work, new bridged network can be added to boot2docker image and DISPLAY should be set to local address of host.
Also, because boot2docker image has very low RAM and GPU memory, GUI apps will often crash. This could probably be fixed with higher RAM and GPU memory settings in VirtualBox.
