Hmm...that's odd. %desktop-services contains both the gdm-service and
the elogind-service, which should bring X along for the ride. It sounds
like something in your configuration is preventing these services from
presenting you with a graphical login screen.

Could you share your operating-system declaration? Have you set up any
custom X configuration files somewhere that might be interfering with
the X launching process? Is your graphics card supported with Guix and
the X server?

Perhaps someone else on the list might have some other ideas?

Perplexed,
  Gary
