driver (in services.xserver.videoDriver), the X server is now given
a set of drivers, and will use PCI ids to find the right one.
The only problem is that the choice of OpenGL driver (the
/var/run/opengl-driver symlink) depends on what driver is selected
at runtime (i.e. the NVIDIA implementation for "nvidia", and Mesa
for all other drivers). However this isn't a big problem right now
since "nvidia" isn't included in the default set of drivers anyway
for legal reasons.
* `services.xserver.resolutions' now defaults to [], meaning that the
X server should figure out the desired resolution(s) itself.
Likewise, `services.xserver.defaultDepth' defaults to 0 to let the X
server figure it out.
* Removed some options from xorg.conf that no longer appear needed
("Composite" and the DRI "Mode").

with an empty password, rather than with a hashed empty password.
The latter is a security risk, because it allows remote root logins
if a user enables sshd before setting a proper root password.
* Allow empty passwords for login and slim, but nothing else.

default session is selected. This is because we always want to run
our own initialisation (like starting ssh-agent).
* ssh-agent: don't start it is a child but have it re-exec the
xsession script. This ensures that ssh-agent quits when we log out.
* In the xsession script, don't redirect output to ~/.xsession-errors
if the display manager is kdm, since kdm already does that. In fact
it uses ~/.xsession-errors<optional number> if there are concurrent
X sessions.
* For consistency with other distros and the xdm manpage, exec the
~/.xsession script instead of sourcing it. Do this for the "custom"
session type provided by kdm.

* Modularised the xorg.conf generation. For instance, the Wacom and
Synaptics support has been moved into separate modules. The
contents of xorg.conf is defined by the option
services.xserver.config, and various other options for specific
sections (e.g. services.xserver.serverLayoutSection).
* displayManager.job.env: made this an attribute set.
* tcpEnable -> enableTCP for naming consistency.
* defaultDepth can be set to 0 to leave it undefined (needed for the
vmware driver).
* Removed some options that seem obsolete or are now the default
(e.g. RenderAccel, AllowGLXWithComposite).
* Removed services.xserver.package. This can now be done using
nixpkgs.config.packageOverrides.

KDM will merge multiple sections with the same name (even though it

separate module, which just declares a configuration value that
causes the xinetd module to add it to xinetd.conf. Also Nixified
the service declarations to abstract over the inetd implementation.
* Renamed the services.xinetd.tftpd options to services.tftpd. The
fact that the tftpd module uses xinetd is an implementation detail.
* xinetd: use -dontfork to let Upstart monitor it, and use -syslog to
get error messages at startup.
