Comment 0 for bug 993506

Installing the kernel 3.4.0-1.2 fails to build the nvidia-current module due to missing kernel header files.

Workaround:
Copy the missing header files from arm

cd /usr/src/linux-headers-3.4.0-1/arch
sudo cp arm/include/asm/system.h x86/include/asm/
sudo cp arm/include/asm/compiler.h x86/include/asm/
sudo cp arm/include/asm/system_info.h x86/include/asm/
sudo cp arm/include/asm/system_misc.h x86/include/asm/

and then reinstall the kernel.

Those header files are missing from all but the arm arch.
