What is the correct story? This is EXACTLY why I explained the story. To hear
you to complain about me having here and there no clue. ;-)
<span class="quote">> Wayland is not code you could run, therefore it does not write logs.</span >
If you say so, you do know much better that me.
<span class="quote">> libwayland has a log capture API: wl_log_set_handler_client() for clients

This is ALL COOL. But I am one very average clueless user, and do not know how,
as user of Fedora FC26 (for example) to switch these logs on?!
Do you know how to switch them on (that is the question)???
<span class="quote">> Every display server has its own way of storing its log output.</span >
Agree.
<span class="quote">> Weston by default writes its log output to stderr, but you can use --log

I even did not know that Weston is running on its own (context). And I always
thought that Weston is automatically invoked by Wayland. I even thought that
Weston is somehow integrated/built-in in Wayland, which now I see, it is not.
It is still separate process (if I correctly understood you), but for me
invisible.
<span class="quote">> So, what exactly is missing that Xorg has?</span >
I guess, I was clear about where my ignorance is, wasn't I?!
