In general, when talking about distributions or systems, we can avoid
using either "Linux" or "GNU/Linux" altogether. When talking about the
kernel, Linux is best. But in general, GNOME is a free software
graphical user environment - no need to talk about the underlying kernel
at all for the most part.

Cheers,
Dave.
