Public bug reported:
I upgraded to Vivid and vlc video output stopped working, mplayer works
fine though. First I got this error :
% vlc test.mp4

Permissions on /dev/tty0 at the time were :
% ls -l /dev/tty0
crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 0 Dec 12 11:01 /dev/tty0
I put myself in the tty group, verified using id/groups that I was in
the tty group, re-launched still same error. Then I sudo chmod 660
/dev/tty0 and I got this error :

I checked the perms on /dev/fb0 , looks ok :
% ls -l /dev/fb0
crw-rw---- 1 root video 29, 0 Dec 12 11:01 /dev/fb0
and i'm in video, complete list of my groups :
uid=58512(sabuj) gid=1000(sabuj)
groups=1000(sabuj),4(adm),5(tty),20(dialout),21(fax),24(cdrom),25(floppy),26(tape),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),104(fuse),105(lpadmin),112(netdev),119(admin),122(sambashare),127(vboxusers),135(libvirtd),10005(sbio),10006(jupiter)
