GPIB-user for Debian
====================

To interface with GPIB devices via the userspace tools the kernel bits are
still needed. As those are in the process of being upstreamed, it is advised
to use the dkms module from upstream for now. Once this has landed in the kernel 
and is enabled in Debian the tools will work out of the box.

udev rules
=============

The udev rules provided with the package expect the user being in the "gpib" group.
To create it and add yourself to it run:

$ sudo groupadd gpib
$ sudo usermod -a -G $USER

Then logout and login again; alternatively, reboot.
