This is what my modification looks like:

                     (slim-service-type
                      config => (slim-configuration
                                 (inherit config)
                                 (startx (xorg-start-command
                                          #:configuration-file
                                          (xorg-configuration-file
                                           #:extra-config
                                           (list marble-mouse-settings
                                                 dvorak-evdev))))))

i.e. I’m capturing the default config, inherit from it, and the override
the “startx” field.  You are capturing the default config as “startx”
and then replace the configuration with the value returned by
“xorg-start-command”.  That doesn’t look right.
