[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi Guix,

I wanted to try using startx instead of a display manager.  I finally
got it to work, but it required at very least these patches.  I also had
to create a new service type but I think that it needs more work to be
put in upstream.

Is startx something we want to support?  It seems like the user should
be able to construct a system as the they see fit.

What do you think?

- John
