docker for mac incompatible cpu detected

It's possible to have a CPU that supports virtualization but that there is something in a MAC that is like a BIOS or like a UEFI.

The CPU may indeed not support virtualization, and I read here that the way to check is to run the command $ sysctl kern.hv_support and if the result is e.g.kern.hv_support: 1 then it's fine, and if the result iskern.hv_support: 0` then it's not fine. I have read that there are two issues here that may or may not be connected. You can determine the availability of Hypervisor APIs on a particular machine at runtime with the sysctl(8) command, passing kern.hv_support as an argument.' 'Generally, machines with an Intel VT-x feature set that includes Extended Page Tables (EPT) and Unrestricted Mode are supported. For my processor(the core2duo P8600), the page is a bit older in design, as the CPU was launched Q3'08 while it says I have VT-x it doesn't say yes or no as to whether I have EPT or VT-d. While it supports VT-x, I am guessing perhaps it doesn't support some later virtualization capabilities because this later CPU, the i5 760, launched Q3'10 (not in my laptop), has a newer page that has some other things listed related to virtualization For example the i5 mentions 'Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d): No' and 'Intel® VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT): yes'.

Processor in there is Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4GHz Docker requires a processor with virtualization capabilities.
