IIUC, xfce-lock uses one of the above lockers.  For them to work, and if
you want to be able to unlock your screen ;-), you need to make sure you
use =E2=80=98screen-locker-service=E2=80=99  for each of them.

So:

  (operating-system
    ;; =E2=80=A6
    (services (cons (screen-locker-service xscreensaver)
                    %desktop-services)))

since =E2=80=98%desktop-services=E2=80=99 already takes care of slock and x=
lock.

Could you try and report back?  We=E2=80=99re getting there! :-)
