Old kernels and ELF

Hi !

Trying to install xspread, I just can execute it...
Thinking it was because of it's binary format (), I try to
"update" my old 1.2.8 (already claimed for support ELF)
kernel to the 1.3.20. from slack 3.0 (sorry, this is the
newest i have). After rebuilding it, the problem is
still there. I think I need some libs packages in order to
run ELF binary...

Thanks for any help.
