Flightgear does not support Wayland yet. It would be neat, as less cruft in the render system (no networking is included with Wayland, whereas it is with X) means higher FPS, as does more graphics memory available (shut down X first you know!)
It DOES run under Wayland, with the Xwayland extension. It is so slow I did not bother taking off, averaging at less than 1 fps. From wayland.freedesktop.org: Wayland is a protocol for a compositor to talk to its clients as well as a C library implementation of that protocol. The compositor can be a standalone display server running on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input devices, an X application, or a wayland client itself. The clients can be traditional applications, X servers (rootless or fullscreen) or other display servers. Part of the Wayland project is also the Weston reference implementation of a Wayland compositor. Weston can run as an X client or under Linux KMS and ships with a few demo clients. The Weston compositor is a minimal and fast compositor and is suitable for many embedded and mobile use cases. -- 'We may not be Anonymous, for you can track our eMail.
