A simple script/flag that only enables Hardware Acceleration for LXC other than Jellyfin LXC

[iodize6399]

The Jellyfin LXC works properly without any fuss. It would be nice if you could add a Advanced Setting flag for enabling HW acceleration at the time of making new Ubuntu/Debian LXC other than Jellyfin LXC. A separate utility script may also be made for adding HW acceleration to already pre-existing LXC.

Use case: Enabling HW acceleration for Docker LXC

Unfortunately, the script fails under following 4 circumstances:

1. Debian 12 LXC Priviledged, non-free drivers yes
2. Debian 12 LXC Priviledged, non-free drivers no
3. Ubuntu 23.10 LXC Priviledged, non-free drivers no

exit with the following output:

Processing triggers for man-db (2.11.2-2) ...
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.36-9+deb12u4) ...
chgrp: cannot access '/dev/dri': No such file or directory

4. Ubuntu 23.10 LXC Priviledged, non-free drivers yes

exits with the following output:

checking it now...

Fixed. You may get a GID mismatch between the LXC container and host. Discussed here

The non-free is Debian only for now.

Ok, thank you for confirming that non-free Ubuntu is still the same.
