Hi again,

My setup for startx makes sure X is setgid and sets a few environment
variables for the process.  I am not sure symlinking X to the bin
directory is exactly what I need.

Check out what I do here: https://github.com/jsoo1/dotfiles/blob/release/guix/config.scm

The relevant pieces are the chown-program-service-type, and startx
definition.

Thanks again for improving the startx experience on Guix.

Kindly,

John
