Trams in Zagreb run (at least) X11

Raw unrotated cellphone pic, just taken.
These cool, touchscreen-enabled, smartcard-reading devices for ticket sales/verification seem to have only one flaw: a chunk of Engrish (‘select zone or aproach [sic] card’). They even run X11, probably on a UNIX! I suspect each device is just a dumb terminal that gets imagery over network, since other devices in the tram had proper (or improper, if switched to English) GUI displayed.
