I'm using proprietary nvidia drivers `nvidia-driver-390` package.
I've migrated my home system to ubuntu 20.04 some time ago and noticed that all
acceleration is broken in snap-based chromium.
If I go into chrome://gpu/

I suspect that chromium snap cannot access `/dev/nvidia*` files.
If I run chromium binary directly like
`/snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chrome`
or run flatpak version of chromium, acceleration works fine and there are no
such error messages.
In the journalctl logs I also see a DENIED message at the startup, not
sure if this is related
