Similar here, not using anywhere ttyC0, rather tty00 and ttyC1 to ttyC5. Confirmed the /etc/fbtab lines for these ttys worked as expected in these cases. > So the error was not really an error, going back to ttyC0 login I got > the right permission and the messages are no more.

Interesting if you ssh log in to startx, e.g. ttyp0, does this work in /etc/fbtab and is it expected to in this case? > One question please: is it right that not getting access to /dev/drm0 > is like losing hardware acceleration for applications using it? Yes, on a drm(4) supported device. You could confirm this with the demo glxgears(1).
