Program needs to run as root to access robot device on Arch Linux #8

On my machine (Arch Linux), I need to run the program in root, or a permission error occurs when connecting to the uArm. I think the program should know to complain about this so the user can fix it.

The interface will now display a descriptive error message after the user connects to their robot. Please verify that this works in Linux. Cheers!
