Hi,

you can redirect stdout and stderr to a file. Printing to the terminal
stops working once Weston enters graphics mode. If you are launching
weston through a serial console, maybe it overflows and drops random
bytes - is your serial flow control correctly set up also for the
kernel console output?

It looks like you get kernel bug output too. A kernel bug is always a
kernel issue, so you would need to look into that first.

Also make sure that Weston is not somehow patched for Mali
specifically. I don't know if such patches exist, but if they do, we
can't support them.

This page seems to summarize the status of FOSS drivers:
