STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure a qemux86 image by adding the following line in conf/local.conf in order to enable weston compositor in the image:
 CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += "wayland weston"
2. $ bitbake core-image-sato
3. Run the qemu image:
$ runqemu tmp/deploy/images/bzImage-qemux86.bin tmp/deploy/images/core-image-sato-qemux86.ext3 
4. Open the terminal in QEMU and set the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR that is needed to start weston:
$ export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/home/root/xdg
5.a) Run weston from the terminal:
  # weston

OR
5.b) Click the Weston (wayland compositor) icon in the Matchbox Desktop


EXPECTED RESULT
Weston is displayed on top of X

ACTUAL RESULT
- see the screenshot
- weston starts, but it doesn't draw on top of X
