How to tell weston to show exactly one app in fullscreen?

No, I got the color format to work, but I need to rotate the screen, and 
the rotation in fbdev doesn't work as expected.
(I changed compositor-fbdev.c - weston_output_init() or so, to have the 
Transform which I wanted to try)

Normal => 480x272
180° => didn't do anything here, panel still placed like in normal
90° => changed the image resolution to 272x480 but didn't rotate 
correctly, so half of the screen was invisible
270° => like 90° but the other side was visible

But as fbdev doesn't support Transformation from weston.ini, I guess 
this code isn't thought to be work, right?
Anyway I'm glad, drm with pixman backend is there! :)

It was a Qt4 QWS FBDev Fullscreen App, but not with any wayland shell 
stuff in it.

Yeah, I think so to ... kiosk is what I want and as the panel can be 
removed, I probably go with this solution.


Thanks again pq!
