Hi,
Have a problem with my Asus N56VZ laptop. I cannot install the alx driver. It is a clean install of the system, and I updated with apt-get update, upgrade, and dist-upgrade.
I Had the latest version of backtrack installed and with these drivers had it working.
I also installed the kernel headers, and this will let me continue a bit more, but now I get the following error:
