Has anyone else seen these random characters on the command center display. I think one of the applications is corrupting the display memory space but not sure which one:

The most likely suspect is the Bluetooth interface since it had frozen up at the time, but it could have been another module as well. The problem cleared up the next time I started the car.

If it's running an X server (via whatever Linux Visteon is using) this should not be possible; the server should be in a separate address space from all the apps. Of course, people have been busily removing all the nice network capability and address-space separation and other great things from X, all in the name of performance and 3D acceleration and so on... :s (I have not dug into the internals of X in over a decade now, yikes.)

(Admittedly, running your car's touch screen display over an internet connection is probably overkill. )
