A Linux kernel panic in a bus. (Image flipped because the screen is mounted upside down.)

It would be interesting which city and which bus brand 🙂

Thank you!

I’m amazed it actually uses Linux. Stuff like this usually has a full blown installation of some outdated version of windows just to run a slideshow or something. I guess manufacturers are finally learning it’s cheaper and safer to just throw on a Linux build.

I've only ever seen Linux based info screens in the last 20 years

Could not find cpu?!

So who's printing to the screen?

(I'm guessing it's an "error at line 0" type thing relating to the whole device tree)
