This needs root permissions to access /dev/dri/card0

systemd takes care of the permissions AFAIKT from the contortions I've seen wrangling with X on sysv in stretch. It's not the same in testing and sid - but it's probably similar when running systemd.
check the X log to see if it helps locate it -
(check the date ls -la of files in .local/share and /var/log to make sure it's the current log )
- or check systemd for how it handles X permissions.
good luck with the mac stuff too - ever dive into darwin at all?
I looked inside a few times when they first released.
