Actually thinking about it I think it's the fact that two of the
monitors have a rotation applied that blocks wayland.
I have a dual monitor setup with both monitors rotated, using an NVIDIA
adapter (9600 GT). Works fine, uses Wayland. Again, you need to be
*very specific* about graphics issues. They are very often very
specific to the exact hardware in use - down to the model of the
graphics card and which specific outputs are used.
