nautilus opens in wayland if started out of x.org, should respect DISPLAY, WAYLAND_DISPLAY

  1. start two gnome-shell one on tty1 and X (startx), one on tty2 with wayland (XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland exec dbus-run-session gnome-session).

  2. open a gnome terminal switch to tty1, open a gnome-terminal.

  3. start nautilus there is no WAYLAND_DISPLAY set. only DISPLAY. type "nautilus" and it launches not on tty1 where the terminal is, but on tty2, wayland, instead of tty1. its working there.

i tried with other applications as well and this seems to be a more general issue with gnome applications:

  • all open correctly when started on tty2, wayland.
  • gnome-terminal opens correctly on tty1, tty2. the only one behaving as expected.
  • epiphany exits with an error on tty1
$ epiphany

  • shotwell opens on tty2, menus displaced
  • gnome-texteditor opens on tty2, working
  • totem crashes
