Description ys3al35l 2021-04-03 08:00:08 PDT
I launch weston, with the fbdev backend:

backend=/usr/lib/libweston-9/fbdev-backend.so

then set my environment:

$ export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
$ export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/weston
$ export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland
$ export GDK_BACKEND=wayland

then try to launch MiniBrowser and get nothing useful on the graphics screen and this error on the cli:

$ /usr/lib/wpe-webkit-1.0/MiniBrowser

** (MiniBrowser:127436): WARNING **: 09:09:33.548: WindowViewBackend: cannot yet handle wpe_fdo_shm_exported_buffer.

I can launch luakit in weston with this setup, but not MiniBrowser. I have not tried this on an HDMI connected display (/fb0). 

This is on an RPi 3B+ running Arch Linux kernel 5.10.25 aarch64.
