I didn't miss it, I don't think.

If you're referring to the Inquirer article, that one also dealt with the in-flight entertainment system. That system is based on an old RedHat version, and has been modified by Panasonic, as I understand it.

You do refer on that thread to Airbus having problems with Linux "all over" the planes. Does that refer to the fact that the in-flight system can physically be seen anywhere on the plane, or was there another Linux system within the Airbus planes that was causing a problem? Or, were you exaggerating?

Do you have any documentation of any other problems with Linux on Airbuses, outside of Panasonic's entertainment system? Thanks.

I'm not as good at reading foreign websites as you guys,but when I glanced over the article all I saw was the error message of "your seat is rebooting".

In any event it was obviously Linux and not Windows as the other posters were claiming.

If I hadn't come along you boys would probably still be cussing Bill Gates for it LOL.
