How fix this error.

Do you know if there's already an X server running when you run guile-wm? If so, are you executing this command from a terminal emulator running inside the X session or outside of it? Typically you wouldn't want to invoke guile-wm directly but would use a command like startx or an X session manager.

My .xsession is:

# start guile-wm
#exec guile-wm

# debug guile-wm
exec st

I have tried wrote 'exec guile-wm' to .xsession But it still fails

I don't understand how to use startx with GuixSD So I used gdm & xsession file to start it.
