            Bug ID: 101750
           Summary: Where do I find the GNOME Wayland logs on Fedora 26?
                    Probably Weston!?
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: weston
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Let me start from GNOME on Xorg as an architecture.

We see that in Xorg server space we have two processes working independently.
We have Xorg server as one process (which also does logging built-in services),
and we have aside second independent process which is Xorg compositor itself.

These two processes (Xorg server and its compositor) communicate (probably) via
D-bus, my best guess?!
_______

Let me now change the topic. Let me talk about Wayland clients, and Wayland,
and its server (called Weston). Here, we have completely different situation,
as my best understanding is. Talking about Wayland + Weston architecture.

We have Weston as server, and Wayland as a protocol that specifies the
communication between Weston and its clients. I assume, single (Wayland +
Weston) process after all. And, we do NOT have logger, as we have it in Xorg
server.

Major/critical question: why we don't have logging services/logger in Weston?

[1] Because the execution timing is tight?
[2] Real Time is compromised?
[3] You, Weston developers, name it for me/us all?! 

In other words I am advocating for the logger (similar to one in Xorg server,
which creates Xorg.0.log files) to be created/designed and built-in inside/as
part of Weston. 

Thank you,
_nobody_
