Tried to get E running directly under Wayland. I used efl and enlightenment from here, plus these instructions:
https://www.enlightenment.org/about-wayland

After running enlightenment_start directly from the Linux terminal (i.e., outside of X and withoug Xwayland), I ran into this issue:

  1. I see the Wayland logo in the top-right corner of the center monitor (which is correctly identified as DisplayPort-0).

  2. The left (HDMI-A-0) and the right monitor (DVI-D-0) continue to show the Linux command line.

  3. E > Settings Panel > Screen > Screen Setup only picks up the center monitor.

I cross-checked with Weston compositor, also running it directly from the Linux command line (outside X and without Xwayland). All three monitors come on correctly.

Yup. zero support for multi monitor. Not a bug - but a known limitation.
