NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel

services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
|

of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

Also note that the GPL below is copyrighted by the Free Software

kernel) is copyrighted by me and others who actually wrote it.

Also note that the only valid version of the GPL as far as the kernel

is concerned is _this_ particular version of the license (ie v2, not
|
|
|
|
|
v2.2 or v3.x or whatever), unless explicitly otherwise stated.
