# Cannot open virtual Console
If you see this line in the logs:
```sh
xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open virtual console 2 (Permission denied)
```
* Run `cat /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config`
This should have the line `allowed_users=anybody` in it
* Run `cat /etc/group | grep tty`
If your username is not listed under that line, you need to add it with the following command:
```sh
usermod -a -G tty pi
```
(if your username is not 'pi' change 'pi' to your username)
Restart KlipperScreen:
```sh
sudo service KlipperScreen restart
```
If it's still failing as a last resort add `needs_root_rights=yes` to `/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config`:
```sh
sudo bash -c "echo needs_root_rights=yes>>/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config"
```
restart KS.
