Tsù-sik

1. GNU is the primary userland used in nearly all Linux distributions.^[2][3][4] The GNU userland contains system daemons, user applications, the GUI, and various libraries. GNU Core utilities are an essential part of most distributions. Most Linux distributions use the X Window system.^[5] Other components of the userland, such as the widget toolkit, vary with the specific distribution, desktop environment, and user configuration.^[6]
2. BusyBox is an alternative userland used in many embedded Linux distributions. BusyBox replaces most GNU Core utilities.^[7] One notable Desktop distribution using BusyBox is Alpine Linux^[8]
3. "Linux" trademark is owned by Linus Torvalds^[10] and administered by the Linux Mark Institute.
