I understand it generates a startx script to be used instead of the default startx that comes with xinit. But the generated script does not work for me and the logs weren't very helpful. I know there is an email in this mailing list explaining how to use the x server without a login manager. Up until now I've been using the custom startx script given in that email, but I would like to include my xorg config into my system config. Currently the relevant part of my config looks like this: (services (cons* (extra-special-file "/usr/bin/startx" (xorg-start-command (xorg-configuration (fonts (cons* font-gnu-unifont font-terminus font-misc-cyrillic %default-xorg-fonts)) (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)))) [ ... ]))
