Hi Roelof,

Your configuration.nix[1] looks OK to me. But you log indicates trouble with X:

Apr 06 13:12:18 nixos kdm[1229]: X server for display :0 cannot be
started, session disabled


Take a look at /var/log/X.0.log to see if there are some clues there
(as to why "X server died during startup").
