Nothing is switching to tty7 as I'm connected via UART so different
output.
Anyway weston starts properly on tty7 and is displayed correctly on the
display.

No, ssh can connect (I get the content of /etc/issue.net) but after that
it hangs and will not ask for the password.
Or if I had an ssh connection already opend, and want to "ps aux" if
weston still running. I call "ps aux" and it will never show anything or
stop. It just hangs in there.

Ctrl+Alt+F1? Never tried, but I guess if I can, I would be able to
login, cause a login via UART (which is the same as locally) hangs too.

I tried weston-launch without --tty too.
