I got the following output
[root@Peer ~]# vlc
VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry.
If you need to use real-time priorities and/or privileged TCP ports
you can use vlc-wrapper (make sure it is Set-UID root first and
cannot be run by non-trusted users first).
I know that this is about that I will have to switch to some other user except root but I dont want to do this as when I logged as different user then I can not make modifications in the files that are stored on my system FAT drives, created by root. and I have a lot of data of such kind which I need time to time.
