The symlink should point to the base directory of your kernel sources. |

When something mentiones that it should point to the headers, that's |
3 |
what they mean. Your kernel headers are contained within your running |
4 |
kernel's source directory. /usr/src/linux should always point to your |
5 |
currently-running source directory so things like nvidia-kernel will |
6 |
work. |

No, you do not need to emerge glibc after changing your kernel. |
