Sorry the flight has been over for a few hours. But if you send me some code I can try on my way back. π
Try a fork bomb /s
Hahahahaha this may end up being Investigated by a federal agency ... Hahahaha
but can it play Doom
Nope only Chex Quest
Chex Quest was awesome. Best thing to come out of a Chex box.
It's on Steam.
And itβs free!
Def would hack, the crew would understand I had to do it.
1 single CPU/thread? Ouch
Probably AMD Geode based. That Tablet is just old :D
By the time a piece of hardware is aviation certified, it is ancient.
Well, yeah, but that there CPU was from 1999
This chair isn't multicore enough for you?
My sons playschool chair has more processing capabilities
Modern plains use android, btw.
It only crashes about two times during flight πππ»
Lucky that the plane I am on predates Android by 11 years
Boeing 777-300?
Not so much 57-200
Let me tell you that Linux-based IFE may be based on open source, but it sure as shit ainβt free.
and its free, free softwareπΆ
Side note: free doesn't refer to cost
What the hell type of storage is a /dev/mtd lol
SPI flash
What kernel is that, 0.1?
It's probably good old 2.6.32. Still deployed in heaps of places even though it's getting close to 15 years old and has been EOL since 2016 for official support and 2020 for RHEL6 (and probably CentOS6 too)
Not if the kernel was built around the time of that geodeoss module from 2004.
It might have been 2.4 or maaybe 2.6 if they were on the bleeding edge (I somehow doubt it), but 2.6.32 came out five years later and I can't believe they would have recertified a new kernel for the fun of it.
I've never heard of that module but is it possible they're using an older module with a newer Linux version?
Or it could be 2.4 like you said!
Actually thinking about this, I believe Tux would only show on kernels newer than 2.6.20, released in 2007, or at least CONFIG_LOGO was. So it seems that kernel is a lot newer than those modules it's loading.
I think V4L was kernel 2.3 or something like that anyway.
The image I probably pretty old
Nope just minutes old. Took it in flight when they had to reboot the seats.
linux is for sure the superior choice. still can't understand why many public transport companies buy windows licenses to display simple departure times. some of them even seem to run separate machines for panels always displaying the same info...
The Dutch railroads seem to run near all displays on Linux.
But then as soon as a city wants to add something to the station, there's a windows lockscreen every other month.
Blessed flight.
