That your X server isn't listening to TCP. Which is normal in this century. That's why we have DISPLAY=:0 instead of DISPLAY=localhost:0. (Or, your X server isn't running at all. But since you seemed to expect to see something, I'm guessing that you actually do have X running, so my first answer is probably what you want.)
