Hi,

then I am equally at loss, too.

Please run the X11 app with 'strace' and see what exactly fails.

You already tried them, and I can't see anything wrong in what you
wrote.

Except, you didn't say Weston logging a message where it actually
succeeded in launching Xwayland. Something like this:

[12:08:05.666] xserver listening on display :1
...
[12:08:11.198] Spawned Xwayland server, pid 26539
[12:08:11.475] xfixes version: 5.0
[12:08:11.491] created wm, root 924

Those last three lines indicate success.


Thanks,
