Hi,

sorry, I don't do HTML emails, so there is no link in that.

I have no way of knowing. All I know is that Weston 2.0.0 source code
does not have a function named weston_compositor_init(), not defined
nor called. But your error message referred to such function, so I can
only assume that you are not running what you intended to.

See 'man weston' and 'man weston.ini' for how to specify the backend.

The DRM-backend should be the default though, unless you configured the
build to use something else, or you have WAYLAND_DISPLAY or DISPLAY
environment variables defined.

Defining WAYLAND_DISPLAY environment variable manually would be a
mistake that could cause Weston to choose the Wayland-backend.

What errors?

If you refer to

>  > [02:19:21.735] fatal: failed to create compositor backend 

then those are not caused by the xwayland entries.


Thanks,
