This ensures that "journalctl -u display-manager" does what you would expect in 2016. However, the main reason is to ensure that our VM tests show the output of the X server. A slight problem is that with KDE user switching, messages from the various X servers end up in the same place. However, that's an improvement over the previous situation, where the second X server would overwrite the /var/log/X.0.log of the first. (This was caused by the fact that we were passing a hard-coded value for -logfile.) |

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
