Fiasco-UX and all the L4 programs that are run in Fiasco-UX are normal
Linux user applications and thus have not more rights than any other
Linux program you are running. Directly accessing hardware is not
possible with Fiasco-UX, in the same way it's not possible to access
hardware directly as a Linux program. I hope this clarifies the
question.
