Bug Description

I was just running this under wayland / weston on drm, and noticed I could see a weston-terminal through the jellyfish.

I'm not sure this is a "bug" per se, though I suppose it could be. glmark2 uses an "opaque" clear color (0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0), but if the alpha component of the glmark2 buffer ends up < 1.0, I assume Weston will blend it with whatever is "underneath" it in the window stack, right? In that case, I would argue intended behavior.

Right. One way around this would be to ask the display server for an RGBX (instead of an RGBA) surface, but I don't know if wayland supports this (a quick search didn't uncover something).

I believe it does support xrgb.
