Put the file debian/extras-Ubuntu-6.06/etc/udev/rules.d in /etc/udev/rules.d -- this makes the /dev/rtai_shm file writable by non-root users, and is automatically installed with the official emc packages (but not by 'make install' or for run-in-place systems) Do the same for .../udev/scripts/rtai_fifos.sh if it exists in your version of the emc2 source tree; this enables the rtai latency test to run without manually executing "mknod".
