The difference should be "running as root" vs. "running as any user".
Try the vt switching directives in directfbrc (see man or ML archives).

unichrome is a newer DirectFB driver than cle266, adding a lot of new
features. This is kind of v0.4 vs. v0.3
disable-module allows to use the unichrome driver by avoiding testing
the cle266 one, which should match the AcceleratorID first.
