Well I think the doubt in fact is about the correct way for call this Operating System (OS). I think the political correct way for it must be gnu/linux because historically it was the way as this OS was completed and worked. We are talking about the firsts years of the 90's. Nowadays this OS family has grown a lot. It's like a huge tree growing more and more every year.

But the most of people use to call them simply linux. It isn't wrong, but linux is in fact, as someone said before, just the kernel, not the whole operative system. And well, I think it's sufficiently explained.

Cheers
