- The 1.13 branch gets no updates since April,
so I thought it's a good time to switch.
- Some xorg modules needed to be updated to build,
but some don't have the update (probably all very obscure).
- Maybe it would be good to update the intel driver (or some others),
I don't know.
Conflicts (a little tricky, I did some cleanup of interacting changes):
pkgs/development/compilers/llvm/default.nix
pkgs/development/libraries/libpng/default.nix
pkgs/tools/package-management/nixops/default.nix
pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix
- update some modules to work with the newer server
- fix many other modules via overrides
- huge cleanup in overrides via better propagation
and pixman include flattening
- URLs of XCB stuff have been moved
The original fix modified a generated file instead of the
manually-maintained overrides file. Checked by inspection.

It seems that (almost?) all NixOS users start X using the services module,
because startx seems to be broken for quite some while. And it hit me while
getting to NixOS for the first time as well, so I then decided to just use the
service module.
As I'm working with multiple X servers, writing wrappers in ~/nixpkgs/config.nix
became tedious and so I decided to fix it, hopefully without breaking anything.
The fix consists of:
* Provide a default location for the Xorg log (~/.xorg.log - hope that's okay)
* Expose xauth through xinit to ensure purity and "unexpected behaviour", also
known as "simply not working", because xauth isn't in the user's environment.
* Actually provide the X binary so it doesn't have to be passed to startx every
time.

6.14.6 requires a newer version of libdrm, which in turn requires a newer
version of mesa. I cheated and edited the generated default.nix file instead of
re-generating it, since generate-expr-from-tarballs.pl complained of a collision
between two tarballs providing different versions of xorg-server.
This reverts commit 2f2426a02f89458451de0570ee6f0bf1442a3619.
xf86-video-intel requires a newer version of libdrm, which in turn
breaks mesa. So stick to 1.12.4 until this gets sorted out.
