+ <application>Weston</application> is the reference implementation of
+ a <application>Wayland</application> compositor, and a useful
+ compositor in its own right. It has various backends that lets it
+ run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11.
+ <application>Weston</application> also ships with a few example clients,
+ from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol
+ to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit.

+
+ <para>
+ To start <application>Weston</application> as a X11 client,
+ from an X terminal, run the following command:
+ </para>
+
+<screen><userinput>weston</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>
+ To run it as a DRM compositor, from a TTY, while logged
+ in as a normal user, run the following command:
+ </para>
+
+<screen><userinput>weston-launch</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>
+ Note that <command>weston-launch</command> is a wrapper for
+ <command>weston</command>. If you need to pass a parameter
+ to <command>weston</command> while using
+ <command>weston-launch</command>, use the following syntax:
+ </para>
+
+<screen><userinput>weston-launch --
--backend=fbdev-backend.so</userinput></screen>
+
+ <para>
+ Note the -- between the <command>weston-launch</command> and
+ the <command>weston</command> parameter
+ <parameter>--backend=fbdev-backend.so</parameter>. For list
+ of parameters that you can pass to <command>weston</command>,
+ consult the <command>weston(1)</command> manual page.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ To terminate <application>Weston</application> when running
+ as a DRM compositor, use the CTRL+ALT+Backspace
+ combination on your keyboard.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Note that the default backend, DRM, will only run if a
+ KMS driver is present on the system. It will not run in
+ a virtual machine such as VBox or Qemu and on NVidia or
+ AMD hardware with proprietary drivers. On these setups
+ it would be possible to use the FBDEV backend by running
+ the command described above.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Also note that the X11 backend requires a working EGL stack.
+ If you are running hardware that has no 3D support or
+ no EGL stack, you can't run accelerated applications
+ inside <application>Weston</application>. The latest
+ proprietary NVidia driver has the necessary EGL
+ stack needed to run <application>Weston</application>
+ as an X11 client, but it is not officially supported.
