What about adding marius to the group that has to do with display???

cat /etc/group | grep video

tells me:

video:x:44:

what about changing this line to:

video:x:44:marius

or maybe even something like:

video:x:44:marius,marius_friend_who_is_allowed_to_watch_marius_movies,ab 
raham_lincoln,george_washington, etc
