    Hi. Do you support old kernels such a 2.4 and earlier?

    Hi,

    Sorry, we don’t support older kernels officially as they are missing many APIs required by various parts of VisualKernel (e.g. our Ethernet debugging driver and the fast module enumeration driver). As we provide source code for both of those components, you might be able to patch them to run under older kernels, but we won’t be officially supporting the 2.4 kernel as it is no longer actively maintained and not used in modern distros.

    Hi,

    Sorry, unfortunately not much. As this kernel version was discontinued ~7 years ago, most modern tools will likely not support it anymore, so we would advise switching to a newer system that runs a 3.x or a 4.x kernel.
