    Linux on cars, when?

    Someone correct me if I am wrong, But I’m pretty sure VWAG (Volkswagen Audi Group) software is built on Redhat for both the infotainment and the digital dash cluster, and they are riddled with issues 😬

      I won’t speak for VW, but most of these systems are built on QNX. You need a real-time operating system for a lot of these operations.

      That is very interesting. Question is, are we allowed to look into it at very least? I imagine not (I can understand change would not be allowed unless there was some audit process to ensure security, but at very least see what’s there)
