[SLE] Linux name question!!!
Sorry because the thing I want to ask has nothing to do with the list, but I have the doubt and is the following: Can I name a Company for example "H&M Linux Productions" using the Linux name in the name of the company? Or do I have to pay something for using the name, or ask someone? Thanks... and sorry again.

I believe the trademark is held by Linus himself. Providing your use of "Linux" is genuine I don't believe he would mind. However, it might be a nice idea to drop him a mail and ask, if for no other reason than to receive an answer from the man himself :-) If he approves, you cannot get a stronger endorsement.
