Using invalid module options in the submodule isn't very nice, because it doesn't give very useful errors in case of type mismatch, also we don't get descriptions of these options as they're effecively nonexistent to the module system. Another downside of this is that merging of these options isn't done correctly as well (eg. for types.lines). So we now have proper submodules for each xrandrHead and we also use corcedTo in the type of xrandrHeads so that we can populate the submodule's "output" option in case a plain string is defined for a list item. Instead of silently skipping multiple primary heads, we now have an assertion, which displays a message and aborts configuration evaluation appropriately.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
