I think our ‘xorg-server’ is as minimal as can be. What do you have in
mind?

Yes, that’s a problem: currently (gnu system xorg) has a list of
hardcoded video drivers, which is obviously not optimal.
I think someone (宋文武, was it you?) was looking into making it more
flexible, but I’m not sure what happened.

This should be relatively easy. Either do not use %base-services at all
and explicitly list which services you want, taking %base-services in
(gnu services base) as an example.
Or you could construct your service list by removing things from
%base-services (untested):
(fold (lambda (service result)
(if (and (eq? (service-kind service) mingetty-service-type)
(string>? (mingetty-configuration-tty
(service-parameters service))
"tty2"))
result
(cons service result)))
'()
%base-services)

I don’t think Ratpoison is automatically installed. However WindowMaker
is, because of the #:fallback-session in ‘xinitrc’, in (gnu system
xorg); 宋文武, i think we could remove it now, no?
Thanks,
