[Elecraft] K3 Linux rig control

I am looking for Linux software to control the K3. Currently I use an 
old version of HRD - which basically does what I want. HRD is a no go 
under Wine. I am totally uninterested in logging apps and similar - only 
desire rig control.

At this point I am running Linux Mint 17 on one machine and Win 10 
Preview on another.  Win 10 is filled with features - as in bloatware - 
that I do not need nor want. However, there are a few programs that I 
run that are Windows only types and have no serious clones available for 
Linux. HRD is one of these.

Any suggestions? My goal is to run only a single system - Linux or 
Windows. It makes it too fiddly to run two full systems. Dual boot and 
VMware solutions have been explored and dismissed. Rig control would go 
a long way toward making the change to Linux only.

Thanks,
