Indeed.

Using the capitalized version also enforces the fact that "Linux" is
actually "Linux®", a registered trademark in many countries belonging to
Linus Torvalds and administered by the Linux Mark Institute (now a part
of the Linux Foundation) -- http://www.linuxmark.org

Use of small-l "linux" implies that it is a generic term, which it is
certainly not.
