The framebuffer console in the SDL library requires root permissions, regardless of the groups. There's a fix in SDL-1.2.16 to allow running as non-root. changeset: 2846:6428b7e83c2c branch: SDL-1.2 user: Paul Cercueil <p...@crapouillou.net> date: Tue Sep 22 05:03:51 2020 +0300 summary: video/fbcon: Allow running as non-root You'll find it on https://hg.libsdl.org/ in the SDL-1.2 branch. I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
