Comment 9 for bug 567699

Martin: I think you misunderstand the problem.

Even with the current version in bzr (lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/jockey/ubuntu r531), I get the following:

$ aptitude search '^linux.*generic$~i'
i linux-generic - Complete Generic Linux kernel
i linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.38 on x
i linux-image-generic - Generic Linux kernel image
$ jockey-gtk
[install the nvidia driver]
$ aptitude search '^linux.*generic$~i'
i linux-generic - Complete Generic Linux kernel
i linux-headers-2.6.38-7-generic - Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.38 on
i linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.38 on x
i linux-image-generic - Generic Linux kernel image

To solve this bug, the ‘linux-headers-generic’ metapackage needs to be installed, not just the ‘linux-headers-2.6.38-7-generic’ package. For why this is important, reread my comment above.
