Linus has placed the Linux kernel under the GNU General
Public License, which basically means that you may freely
copy, change, and distribute it, but you may not impose any
restrictions on further distribution, and you must make the
source code available.
The licenses of the utilities and programs which come with
the installations vary. Much of the code is from the GNU
Project at the Free Software Foundation, and is also under
the GPL. Some other major programs often included in Linux
distributions are under a BSD license and other similar licenses
