The VirtualBox tests so far ran the X server as root instead of user
"alice" and it did work, because we had access control turned off by
default.
Fortunately, it was changed in 1541fa351b.
As a side effect, it caused all the VirtualBox tests to fail because
they now can't connect to the X server, which is a good thing because
it's a bug of the VirtualBox tests.
So to fix it, let's just start the X server as user alice.

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-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
