+Setup Udev on Linux
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+On Linux, Udev handles USB plug and unplug events.
+The following command creates a Udev rule for the USRP1
+so that non-root users may access the device:
+
+::
+
+    echo 'ACTION=="add", BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="fffe", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0002", MODE:="0666"' > tmpfile
+    sudo chown root.root tmpfile
+    sudo mv tmpfile /etc/udev/rules.d/10-usrp.rules
+    sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
