Return a derivation that builds a @var{guile} script to start the X server
from @var{xorg-server}. Usually the X server is started by a login manager.
@var{drivers} must be either the empty list, in which case Xorg chooses a
graphics driver automatically, or a list of driver names that will be tried in
this order---e.g., @code{("modesetting" "vesa")}.

+Likewise, when @var{resolutions} is the empty list, Xorg chooses an
+appropriate screen resolution; otherwise, it must be a list of
+resolutions---e.g., @code{((1024 768) (640 480))}.
