     I want to run a svgalib program via some remote program (xterm) in 
order to display a graphic on the target machine . But I found a error 
message something like  that "cannot open a new virtual console that not 
own by current user".
if I change to root , it works . But I don't want to use root . What can I 
do ?
I have tried to change /dev/tty0 ~  9 (i.e. chmod 777 /dev/tty0 ~ 9 ) . But 
the same error message also appear . What can I do ?
