Hi,

you are using the fullscreen-shell.so, so this is not a bug.
weston-terminal (clients/window.c to be more specific) does not
implement support for the fullscreen-shell.

You have to either use a program specifically written to use the
fullscreen-shell protocol, or use desktop-shell.so instead.

Grep for _wl_fullscreen to see which Weston demo programs support
running on fullscreen-shell.

weston-info is different, because it never even tries to create a
window. The shell protocol is needed to properly create and show a
window.

(Your other bug reports do look valid at first hand.)


Thanks,
pq
