Unable to run X-clients over Weston through XWayland

Hello,

As we discussed previously, I have been trying to run X-clients on my Weston + Xwayland environment.

I think I have come to a point where my Wayland succeeds in launching Xwayland, i.e., I am able to get those three prints you mentioned in the trailing email.

When I run xeyes on my Weston+Xwayland environment, I am getting following in /var/log/weston.log :

Spawned Xwayland server, pid 1474                  
Failed to create EGL context with GL                    
EGL setup failed, disabling glamor                                                                                           
Failed to initialize glamor, falling back to sw

[12:44:13.554] created wm, root 77                           

The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:                       
> Warning:          Unsupported high keycode 372 for name <I372> ignored   
>                   X11 cannot support keycodes above 255.                     
>                   This warning only shows for the first high keycode.        
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server                     

(EE) failed to read Wayland events: Broken pipe     

However, on the terminal, there is a delay of 1-2 seconds and then I get following:

root at am57xx-evm:/mnt# ./xeyes 
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
X connection to :0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

And after that weston stops and it doesn't work even when I do "/etc/init.d/weston start".

I have to reboot the board again to make weston work.

Can you tell what did go wrong here?

 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,
