Hi,

Weston launches Xwayland on-demand. The log snippet above does not mean
Xwayland was already started, it's just Weston listening on the X11
socket. Check your Weston stdout/stderr after you failed to launch an
X11 app.

You can also 'strace' your X11 app to see if it e.g. doesn't have the
permission to the open the socket for some strange reason.


Thanks,
