newRPL - build 1255 released! [updated to 1299]

[BarryMead]

TOTAL SUCCESS!!!!
I repeated what I learned with the 10 virtualbox tries, and ran the qt-project installer on my Ubuntu 16.04 desktop. This time everything worked perfectly. I have a newRPL emulator that runs on my native desktop computer without running virtualbox!
I also installed the "/etc/udev/rules.d/99-hidraw-permissions.rules" file with the line:
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"

After making sure that my default login user is included in the plugdev group, and rebooting, the hidraw0 device has the correct permissions, and is in the plugdev group.
When I run the emulator the "Hardware->USB Connections->Select a USB Device" menu finds the USB connected calculator under Linux! I have achieved all of my newRPL goals! Happy New Year!!!
