Qt has only been used since kernel 2.6. Kernel 2.4 uses a Tcl/Tk configuration interface. A GTK+ interface (gconfig) is also available since kernel 2.6.
Inside, there are options to display the configurations in 3 different hierarchies; single, split, full. A Find function is available to search for text within the config's titles.
