Hi Emil,

Point 1 will be left for future patch.

Current error message is following.
Error: Permission denied. Hint:Try to run this test program as root.

I am thinking change it. Error message will be:
Error: Permission denied. Hint:Try to run this test program as root or in TTY.

Thanks,
Alex Bin Xie

HI Alex,

A couple of small idea(s) for future work (?).

Add auth mechanism and request run outside of X environment (switching
to TTY should work).
Then adjust the suggestion s/run as root/run in TTY/ ?

Afaict those can never succeed, so might as well change the test to
expect failure [when using the render node], or at least print a
message "the following failure is expected" ?

Thanks the series !
Emil
