* 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.

- Added rpc.statd service, which prevents messages that tell you that you should use -o nolock
- Create /var/lib/nfs on initialization
- Create /etc/exports, so that exportfs can create /var/lib/nfs/etab. This prevents errors such as: mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified

substitute some values, just prepend them to the start of kdmrc.
KDM will merge multiple sections with the same name (even though it
complains a bit). Option definitions that occur first have
precedence.

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.

* Let ConsoleKit track the current logins instead of pam_console.
Udev now takes care of setting the device permissions to the active
user. This works much better, since pam_console wouldn't apply
permissions to new (hot-plugged) devices. Also, the udev+ConsoleKit
approach supports user switching. (We don't have that for X yet,
but it already works for logins on virtual consoles: if you switch
between different users on differents VCs with Alt+Fn, the device
ownership will be changed automatically.)

the bus daemon can start on demand). ConsoleKit and PolicyKit need
this. This requires a setuid wrapper for dbus-daemon-launch-helper,
as well as a "messagebus" group.

option security.pam.services containing the list of PAM services.
For instance, the SLiM module simply declares:
security.pam.services = [ { name = "slim"; localLogin = true; } ];

interface names, use udev's own firmware loader, and dropped the
sndMode option (udev puts all audio devices in the "audio" group, so
users can be added to that group if necessary).

machine containing a replica (minus the state) of the system
configuration. This is mostly useful for testing configuration
changes prior to doing an actual "nixos-rebuild switch" (or even
"nixos-rebuild test"). The VM can be started as follows:
$ nixos-rebuild build-vm
$ ./result/bin/run-*-vm
which starts a KVM/QEMU instance. Additional QEMU options can be
passed through the QEMU_OPTS environment variable
(e.g. QEMU_OPTS="-redir tcp:8080::80" to forward a host port to the
guest). The fileSystem attribute of the regular system
configuration is ignored (using mkOverride), because obviously we
can't allow the VM to access the host's block devices. Instead, at
startup the VM creates an empty disk image in ./<hostname>.qcow2 to
store the VM's root filesystem.
Building a VM in this way is efficient because the VM shares its Nix
store with the host (through a CIFS mount). However, because the
Nix store of the host is mounted read-only in the guest, you cannot
run Nix build actions inside the VM. Therefore the VM can only be
reconfigured by re-running "nixos-rebuild build-vm" on the host and
restarting the VM.

* Simplified the udev rules generation: merged nixRules into
services.udev.extraRules, and handle services.udev.extraRules using
services.udev.packages.

With these modifications, a user can configure a tomcat instance with web applications and web services by writing a service, such as:
...
services = {
tomcat = {
enable = true;
webapps = [ mypkgs.HelloWorldWebApplication ];
axis2 = {
enable = true;
services = [ mypkgs.HelloService mypkgs.HelloWorldService ];
};
};
};
