Hi,

I've tried this solution already, but it didn't work for me then and it
doesn't work now. When I try to reconfigure my system, guix throws:

guix system: error: failed to load '/etc/config.scm':
/etc/config.scm:66:57: Wrong type to apply: #<<keyboard-layout> name:
"pl" variant: "legacy" model: #f options: ()>

Don't really know why this happens. Here's my config.scm:

(services
  (append
   (list (service mate-desktop-service-type)
	 (service slim-service-type
	 	  (slim-configuration
	 	   (display ":0")
	 	   (vt "vt7")
		   (xorg-configuration (xorg-configuration
					(keyboard-layout
(keyboard-layout "pl" "legacy")))))) (service tor-service-type)
         (extra-special-file "/bin/bash"
                             (file-append coreutils "/bin/bash"))
	 ;; (set-xorg-configuration
	 ;;  (xorg-configuration
	 ;;   (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout))
	 ;;  slim-service-type))
	 )
	=20
   (remove (lambda (service)
	     (eq? (service-kind service) gdm-service-type))
	   %desktop-services))))
