Popular hardware hacker Foone Turing has found that the Chevy Silverado
they're renting runs a dubious version of Linux in the entertainment
console, yet it seems to have some control over some in-car systems and
talks via the car's wifi (of course). Ongoing slightly sweary thread
starts here:
foone (@Foone) : I'm renting a recent Chevy Silverado pickup truck
and it has a big screen for connecting navigation and controlling
bluetooth music and such, and it's apparently linux based. You know
how it I know? It has the license files for EVERY SINGLE PACKAGE
included, IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER

Definite 'Code Red' from Cabin Pressure material for me ...
cheers,
