My first gut reaction is to observe 

"Exception: Platform 'linux3' not supported:"

and say that you are running a 3.x kernel. In which case you are SOL
assuming hydrogen only supports kernel-2.x

Your choices are to file bugs with upstream or (better) submit patches
to upstream.

Perhaps someone else has done this already.
