VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry. – Solution


Step 1. Open Terminal type -
                   apt-get install vlc && apt-get install vim-gnome

Step 2. Now Open VLC with gvim -
                   gvim /usr/bin/vlc

Step 3. Now use find  and replace for 'geteuid' and replace that with 'getppid'

Step 4. Now save that file.

Now you can run VLC .
