that regard.
All in all EOL or not people will still want to use those old operating =
systems so they cannot considered EOL and therefore not supported.

Looking at the above list it sounds to me like you had the usb-tablet =
enabled in the vm config, that is not a good idea for Linux versions =
which have an xorg which does not support device hotplug. May I suggest =
that you re-run the tests without the usb-tablet enabled?

This may also help with the problems with other operating systems.
