Ok so I installed xfce4.
Made my shell script as follows:

#!/bin/bash
set -x
# Set up nested X server
Xephyr -keybd ephyr,,,xkbmodel=evdev -br -reset -host-cursor -screen
1280x720x24 -dpi 96 :2 &
sleep 3
export DISPLAY=:2.0
xfce4-session


Now I get the error:



./sh1
+ sleep 3
+ Xephyr -keybd ephyr,,,xkbmodel=evdev -br -reset -host-cursor -screen
1280x720x24 -dpi 96 :2
SELinux: Disabled on system, not enabling in X server
