BT4 Kernel headers

me too
can't use envy to install drivers for nvidia.

Why in the world are you all using envy any way. Just apt-get the driver. Automated stuff is always fail when working with special tools.

Is there anyway to test for a corrupt symlink (instead of getting header issues :P) before I go mucking about with it anymore?

Also, afaik.. Envy is just an automated script to apt-get the drivers. I'll still try it though.

# find . -type l | while read i ; do test -e $i || ls -l $i; done

Just delete the symlink and re link it to the kernel package, no harm done. Both balding parrot and I tried to recreate your error and were un able to. We were both able to apt-get envy with no issue what so ever. If you are unsure of what you are doing I can post the exact commands if it will help you out.

The only thing I can suggest is to rm -rf the linux symlink in /usr/src and then re link the kernel image ln -s linux-2.6.28.2 linux

This also totally works when you encounter compiling-problems in backtrack4 pre-final with the 2.6.29.4 Kernel!

Thx, pureh@te!
