nixpkgs/modules/services/x11/xserver.nix
Eelco Dolstra 3e9665dd96 * X server autoconfiguration. Rather than specifying a fixed video
driver (in services.xserver.videoDriver), the X server is now given
  a set of drivers, and will use PCI ids to find the right one.

  The only problem is that the choice of OpenGL driver (the
  /var/run/opengl-driver symlink) depends on what driver is selected
  at runtime (i.e. the NVIDIA implementation for "nvidia", and Mesa
  for all other drivers).  However this isn't a big problem right now
  since "nvidia" isn't included in the default set of drivers anyway
  for legal reasons.
  
* `services.xserver.resolutions' now defaults to [], meaning that the
  X server should figure out the desired resolution(s) itself.
  Likewise, `services.xserver.defaultDepth' defaults to 0 to let the X
  server figure it out.

* Removed some options from xorg.conf that no longer appear needed
  ("Composite" and the DRI "Mode").
