OK, in that case naming one distribution is too specific, but you need to be 
careful to not use a too generic term instead. I don't think you can find 
much that can be said about all distributions from Tomsrtbt over Smoothwall 
and Slackware to Fedora, apart from what can be said about Linux itself or 
the GNU core utilities. You'll probably have to say things like "many 
distributions" or "all the big distributions".
