Allow Hardware Access for Bottles

[bryanvonhagel]

Hi. First off, loving Bottles. There are few apps that I can't get natively on Linux but, for those few, this saves so much stress.

Question is: is it possible to configure a Bottle to allow its virtualized app to gather system info and interact with system hardware? Specifically, I am trying to get Lian Li's L-Connect 3 (system monitoring (CPU, GPU, fan speeds, etc) and rgb control (fans, motherboard, ram, etc.)) to run in a Bottle and be able to function as expected. While I'm using L-Connect, I assume the principle behind this configuration would be the same for any other app like this (Corsair Link or iCUE or whatever other brands have).

So far, the app runs and launches from the bottle. But, it isn't able to read any of the hardware info like it would if it were running natively. That makes sense because the Windows env is virtualized for it. But, obviously, I'd need to make come connections out of the bottle for this app.

Thanks!!
