In gnu/services/xorg.scm it includes xf86-video-intel, which is x86_64
and i686 only. This FTBFS on aarch64, which is not a supported
architecture anyway for this package, and should not be included in the
xorg-service except on intel machines.

My network is a bit wonky right now and I'm having trouble getting a
connection to my pine64 across the room. I'll check this out soonish™.

When I build gnu/system/examples/vm-image.tmpl, which includes the video
modules, xf86-video-intel is not included in the list of xf86-video-*
packages to build/download. So, fixed to the best of my knowledge.

Thanks for following up!
