<font size="+1">Hi all,<br>
<br>
I've been trying to get a Wayland only display server running on
my Arch guest installations (32 + 64bit) in Virtualbox. Using
strace, I found it seems to be having a problem creating the
wayland display socket. I manged to create a socket using socat,
if I remember right, working from ssh. From strace, that seems to
get past the socket creation issue, but then progress just stops
and I end up with a blank screen only. <br>
<br>
I've asked on the Arch forum for some help a while ago, but didn't
get much feedback so I'm now stuck. Here's my post:<br>

<br>
Can anyone advise me:<br>
<br>
1) Whether there has been any problem with creation of a wayland
display socket, and if not, what can I do to get the display
socket creation working on both installations?<br>
<br>
2) Whether the next thing that should happen after the blank
screen is that weston.ini gets called?<br>
<br>
I've been trying this for months now, and updated my Arch VMs
every time I try, with no success.<br>
<br>
Thanks for any help.. <br>
