[radium] permission denied when radium is running as non-root

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Robin,
I put up new argus and client code sets, which fix this problem.
There are man page fixes and some documentation updates,
getting ready for release.

Please give radium a test to see if it fixes your problems.
