What operating systems are supported?

Drivers are tested on Intel CPUs (larger range of build/kernel versions) and AMD CPUs (typically only latest build/kernel versions); if concerned about a specific OS, please submit a Technical Service Request.

The following table shows the current state of OS support for EDT’s v5.6.8.0 packages(last updated 11/30/2021):

Operating System Details
Windows 10/11* Windows 10 (32 & 64 bit) requires driver version 5.4.3.7 or higher.

Windows 11 requires driver version 5.6.4.0 or higher.

Linux *** Driver versions 5.6.x support kernels 3.10 and newer (tested through 6.5.10); with the exception of CentOs 8.3 (unsupported).
Linux kernels 4.4 and above require driver version 5.5.2.6 or higher.
Linux kernels 2.6 and below require driver version 5.5.10.0 or lower.
Mac OS At present we do not provide drivers or support for MacOS >> details
VxWorks, Solaris, QNX At present we do not provide drivers or support for these operating systems >> details

* Windows drivers are built using Windows 7 and tested on Windows 10 and 11. Windows Vista, Server 2008, Server 2012, 7, and 8 are not specifically tested, but the drivers are compatible to the best of our knowledge.

** Given Microsoft’s end of support for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows 7 – EDT can only provide limited support and testing for these versions.

*** Linux Drivers are built with support from GCC 4 up to GCC 13, and tested with the latest 64-bit versions of RHEL/Alma/Rocky/CentOs Stream (9.3), CentOs Linux (8.2), Debian (12), Fedora (39), and Ubuntu (23.10). Additional testing was performed on CentOs Linux 7.7-1908, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ARM and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
