Hi,

Ubuntu 18.04 is using systemd-logind. Why do want to use weston-launch
despite of that? Simply 'weston' should work on the virtual terminal as
well.

Your error message is garbled too. Please, redirect both stdout and
stderr to a file and inspect the file contents. Printing to the virtual
terminal stops working correctly as soon as Weston switches the TTY to
graphics mode.


Thanks,
pq
