            Bug ID: 88897
           Summary: switching from weston to a VT and back,  mouse crashes
                    X applications
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: weston
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: james at nurealm.net

On Arch Linux, wayland 1.6.1-1, weston 1.6.1-1.

Starting weston from a VT with just "weston", using drm-backend.so, and running
an X application through Xwayland, switching from weston to a VT and back to
weston, and then moving the mouse Pointer over the X application will cause the
X application to terminate, with weston showing "queueing pageflip failed:
Permission denied".  Prior to the VT switch, the X application will run
normally.  In contrast, with a Wayland application, for instance with
weston-terminal, switching to a VT and back, there is no similar problem.

This is a bit of a practical annoyance because, for now, I don't usually run
weston exclusively, instead, more so testing various features and functions,
and enjoying the light-weight graphic shell, which is a big step-up from a VT. 
I like to be able to switch from weston to a VT and to Xorg and back to weston.
 I think this problem is a regression and don't remember anything like this
with weston 1.5.
